Shout-out to the Meh staff
15I’ve very rarely had issues with my orders on Meh, but on the few occasions there was a problem, the staff have always been helpful, accommodating, and professional. One of the sad things about this world is how often people complain and bitch when things go wrong, but how very little, in comparison, folks praise and thank those responsible for making things right. So thanks much, Mehmployees, for doing what you do.

They can also be funny.
I have only had a few issues over the years but they have always been great in assisting me.
@yakkoTDI And resourceful when a different color was accidentally substituted and the requested color was no longer available.
Original thread.
I would also give them two thumbs up for participating in this forum where they can and do interact directly with their customers. Don’t see that very often!
I agree 100%. Way better than experiences I’ve had on the phone with people who don’t understand what you’re trying to tell them, or talk too fast, or put you on hold interminably just to come back on and say too bad, can’t help. Or in writing where I’ve just not heard back. Smart and competent CS is worth waiting a few days for!
@Kyeh Or sometimes when you can’t understand the CS person. Usually preceded by “May I know your name?”
@ItalianScallion Yeah; of course they themselves give you theirs and it’s usually a very American name even if they have strong Indonesian or other accent. Often enough their English is quite correct but their accent is hard for me to understand.
@Kyeh Often it’s British English or some variant of that. “May I know your name?” isn’t the way an American would ask that question, for example. I was an ESL teacher, so accents, regionalisms, dialects, and those sort of things fascinate me.
@ItalianScallion Yep.
@ItalianScallion You will laugh at this. I lived in The Netherlands first. learned Dutch from someone who was attuned enough to tell us where we’d place our tongue differently when we spoke Dutch words vs American English words. So 7 years later I lived in Germany and was accused of speaking German with a Dutch accent. Of course long forgotten Dutch words would come flying out of my mouth if I didn’t know the German one. I had lived close enough to the German border when I lived in Holland that some of what I learned was actually the German way of way of saying things. ‘Upside down’ comes to mind. I said it the German way and not the Dutch way as I learned when I was near the western coast of Holland and said it “wrong”.

I’ve always wondered if the warehouse employees that pack irks look at the reveal threads and recall any memorable ones and oh, my bad or you’re welcome!
