Long Term Customer Asks For New Customer Discount Gets Rude Reply
Dialogue
Overview
This is a 4-panel digital comic meme. Panel 1 shows a male customer support agent wearing a headset, sitting in front of a laptop, saying "YOU'VE BEEN WITH US FOR MANY YEARS..." to a customer. Panel 2 continues with the agent saying "ON THE BEHALF OF OUR COMPANY: THANK YOU.". Panel 3 cuts to an elderly female customer holding a mobile phone, asking the agent "CAN I GET THE SAME DISCOUNTS YOU GIVE NEW CUSTOMERS?". Panel 4 shows the agent responding dismissively and rudely with "EAT SHIT.". The joke highlights the widely relatable real-world frustration that most companies prioritize offering better discounts and perks to attract new customers, while offering no benefits and even being hostile to long-term loyal existing customers who ask for equal treatment.
