He’s getting the publicity he wants.
He should be fired instead.

He’s transrobotic. This is discrimination.

I listened to the clip. It sounds like a normal voice to me.
To: nickcarraway
Dillon was also censured for not responding to customer-service requests and purposefully misdirecting calls.I used to work as a supervisor for a help desk, and one of the staff was doing this too. It was brought to my attention and I talked to him. He denied it and challenged me to prove it. I did, by sitting and listening to and documenting his calls for half a day. I fired him, and that is what this company should have done to Mr. Roboto. They would have been rid of their problem, and Dillon would have been robbed of his 15 minutes of fame.

Obsessive-compulsive is a pretty compelling force. If the rituals are not performed in exactly the right order, then the whole mental construct goes awry.

Google up walmart shane. There are a bunch of funny whiteboard comments to shane like this. Shane supposedly is a deli guy at a walmart, I doubt it’s real, but I don’t know.
