A woman called the firm earlier in the week and started yeling at me about the notice she received for not paying her legal bill and that the next communication she got from us was going to be a Summons from the Sheriff's Dept. I told her that I was not going to listen to her scream and yell at me because she wasn't in control of her emotions and that I was going to hang up if she didn't get herself in check. She got pissed, demanded we waive the late fee, and when I said "no," she told me that I was making her blood pressure rise, which was bad for her health. I told her that her screaming was making her blood pressure rise, not me, and that I'm sure she didn't mean to come across as such an unreasonable, out of control person. After she got herself back in line, she agreed that the charges were accurate, and sent us the payment the next day via overnight mail. Lesson 1 - never take a "tone" or start a "shit-fit" with me unless you want me to end it. (Just ask the Things.)
