Whew, it wasn't just me thinking this! I had to switch to a rerun of ITKWD but that was also a bust bc Tara was doing some weird dance to and from the oven and almost singing everything she said 🤦🏻‍♀️

Isn't she the host who was recently crying because posters (on Facebook I presume) were being meanies. Something about her facial gestures and constant dancing/prancing.

 

Usually when someone receives constructive criticism said person might try to dial it back. Not QVC hosts. It appears they are impervious.

Her comments to customers with valid suggestions havent been exactly friendly either...one customer just made a suggestion to add a bit more short sleeved items for those that live in warmer climates, thats all that was said, and her response was rude and mean spirited (she later went back and deleted her response)...  All she had to say was something like "thanks for your suggestion, I'll pass it on." Leah is always very gracious when suggestions are posted on her Facebook Page.  One gets back the same as what you put out on social media.....JC needs to keep that in mind.....

There are probably personal issues that we aren't aware of (nor should we be), but need addressing by an employer if behavioral issues begin affecting one's job.

 

Without naming host names, I think it is safe to say QVC has a history of not dealing with these problems as they arise.

@Spurt   Have you noticed that she has taken to not allowing comments on some of her FB posts?  The post has a greyed out statement, "Jennifer Coffey QVC limited who can comment on this post."  There's one there from yesterday like that on her page.  I was surprised when I saw that on a few of her posts a while ago, but it seems to keep happening off & on.

 

I don't know what's up with that. No one should feel the need to respond to abusive statements.  But if she's just getting questions, she can choose to answer or ignore, I would think.

yep, you're right, but with a16% decline in sales maybe QVC needs to start to addressing certain issues. Just like JT's response to customer feedback and the requests to dial back on calling David "honey"....yes, they might be friends off camera...but there's a time and place for terms of endearment......Annoying viewers won't endear them to watching and buying either......And employee evaluations are part of ANY job!

There's only a couple hosts that I occasionally check out their Facebook Pages (Carolyn, Leah, and also Alberti when he decorates his home for seasonal holidays) I just happened to comment one time on JC's page---I just went to her page to let her know I was in San Antonio and remembered her doing fashion segments on an AM local morning show and that I enjoyed her segments, and wished her the best at QVC, and thats when I saw the post I wrote about.....That was the last time I went to her page, and LATER heard about her restricting comments on FB....

        I just saw JT and David a couple of days ago. She must have said 'honey' six times in the first 5 minutes!!

Together, they are unwatchable!

I've noticed for years here that when customers give a sincere opinion on how to improve themselves or sales or not do annoying things, the host absolutely does know about it and intentionally increases the offensive behavior.

They've obviously never heard the phrase "the customer is always right." That's their livelihood; instead of making an enemy of the customer, they should want to at the very least consider the opinion. And there is a meaness in their doing it more and more insteaf of less and less.

There is little if any host supervision at the Q. Behavior like that is not ssen at HSN nor do I believe it would be tolerated. 

I'm glad I do not own stock in the Q. I see 16% going South even more now. 

The new CEO seems to believe the problem with that l6% was we needed more diversity in hosts and thus we now have an Asian, a Latina, more men and all young. Strangely, profits go South, they will fix it with hosts....
