freeflyimpaired 0 #126 April 12, 2005 Let me get this straight. You were impatient and you told him he sucked, and you think he was unprofessional. Thats funny.

binkster 2 #127 April 12, 2005 not true. I was approved and then Justin the marketing director called me at 6 in the morning to yell at me so I told him off and hung up and here we are now. He didnt like the overtone of my emails after i was approved. Istill have the emails of approval if anyone wants to see. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pilotdave 0 #128 April 12, 2005 QuoteI told him he was very unprofessional and was gonna put this on dropzone and he laughed so here it is. And after doing so, who do you think came out looking more foolish? I don't think you've made even a tiny dent in his reputation but rather the opposite.

binkster 2 #129 April 12, 2005 i wasnt that impatient. I wasnt dealin with him till he called me at 6 in the morning to talk. I was approved and he didnt like my attitude he said so I told him he was wrong and here we are. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gemini 0 #130 April 12, 2005 QuoteThen justin got mad cause i was a little impatient and denied me. I told him he sucked. He we are. Who cares. I told him he was very unprofessional and was gonna put this on dropzone and he laughed so here it is. That's the funniest thing I have read in quite a while. Sounds to me like you didn't get your way, so now you're going to get even! Blue skies, Jim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
binkster 2 #131 April 12, 2005 i never was trying to ruin his reputation just dont think he was the slightest bit professional and should reexamine his tactics when dealing with a customer. He was beyond rude calling me dude and bing completely disrespectful. Since he works at PD you would think they might want to know about his actions towards a potential customer.

I find it funny that you bitch about someone being unprofessional after you told them they suck. Grow up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
binkster 2 #133 April 12, 2005 no reason to get even just thought that maybe he could be alot more professional towards a potoential customer and maybe he will now towards someone else and they wont have to get woken up at 6 to be yelled at for tryin to speed up a slow process.

beowulf 1 #137 April 12, 2005 Quotewhat are you talkin about? I think what Justin is trying to say is that you come off as a selfcentered egotistical person that has no patience. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflyimpaired 0 #138 April 12, 2005 QuoteSince he works at PD you would think they might want to know about his actions towards a potential customer. I'm not trying to pick a fight here, but I don't think that you've handled the situation correctly if you wanted PD to take your complaint seriously. Bashing the entire company online makes you look upset and vengfull rather than a potential customer.

ianmdrennan 2 #140 April 12, 2005 QuoteI guess Jonathan Tagle won the world cup of canopy piloting after 4 years of skyidiving by not downsizing and pushing the envelope. He does a ridiculous amount of jumps per year. This is a small sport, I doubt Jonathan T tried pissing all over a manufacturers shoes publicly like you have (for no apparent good reason). If you think other manufacturers don't read this board and disapprove of your approach I suspect you're wrong. If you want to be like "the pros" try acting like them. Stomping your feet hasn't gotten you anywhere, in fact I suspect you've done nothing but set yourself back. If you truely had a grievance that was valid, you certainly didn't try and resolve it with the manufacturer first. What makes you think anyone else would want to touch you with a 10 ft pole?

binkster 2 #141 April 12, 2005 whether that is true or not should not be basis for denying a customer a product. It wasnt experience. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beowulf 1 #142 April 12, 2005 Quotewhether that is true or not should not be basis for denying a customer a product. It wasnt experience. True but that approach doesn't go very far.

binkster 2 #150 April 12, 2005 obviously you dont know. I have several other companies that are on my side. They agree with me. People seem to think they know whats best for someone else. Do you think that with this that Justin might just in the slightest bit handle the next guy like me alittle more respectfully just to avoid this stuff? If he does than my job is complete. Until than??????? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
