Why is this post in Customer Care?

 

I do not think QVC staff have any opinion on what phrases the customers like or not....

"Like". Like this what he told me. I mean like that's so cool.  So juvenile & high school. 

 

"To go around". Why do they think that phrase is better than in inventory, in stock, available, to sell. 

 

" High end boutique". I have rarely shopped at boutiques so don't care what they sell or what they consider high end. 

 

"Oprah". Just because Oprah likes something doesn't mean I will.   We all have our own individual taste.

"Obsessed"  I'm obsessed with this purse/lipstick/top, etc., etc. If they were truly "obsessed" they should be committed--LOL!!

Re: Catch phrases

[ Edited ]

Elevate's been overdone.

 

A "whole nother" always bugs me...it's "a whole other", or "another"...though the whole nother has become "the norm" and totally acceptable....accept to my ears.

 

AmAAAAZZZinnnng!!! EVERY dang thing is AHMAZZZZIIING..."Only $102.00, down from 110?!" Amazzzzzing!!!! 🙄 

 

"I'M OBSESSSSSSSSED!!" 

 

Calling handbags, tops etc "she" ...ew. It's a flippin' handbag, people, not a person.

 

 

Ok..That's all, Karen, calllllm dowwwwn now. (Not another catch phrase, just talking to myself. Smiley Happy )
