Ignore the American and she'll go away

This seems to be the consensus, allow me to provide examples:

Hi relocation company, when we talked last week you said you were going to 
order Tolltags and I should get back to you this week.
Hi, it's been another 2 weeks, any news on the tolltags yet?
Hi, another 2 wks, any news yet?
Ok, it's been 3 months, what's up with our tolltags?

Hi property management company, the roof of our side porch fell you should really
come see this and we'll need to get it pulled down right away - it's a little dangerous.
Hi, didn't you say you were coming out last week?
Hi, it's been a week since you saw it and deemed it highly dangerous - is anything
goingto be done about it?
Um, hi, it's been down a month now, can we have someone clean it up?
Hi, two months now, any word on when this "highly dangerous" porch will be cleaned up?
Ok, we're going on 3 months now, nobody returns my calls, I'm here to show you a
picture of how dangerous this porch is, can you please get someone to clean it up?
Ok, I didn't get a call back like you said last week, here's a picture again,
is anything going to be done?
Right, we're going on 4 months now, am I going to have to start calling every day?

Hi workout center, do you have my updated swipe card?  I did like you said and
gave it to the girl at the counter a month ago. No, you'll look for it and get back to me, ok.
Hi, it's been two weeks, do you have my updated card yet?  No, can't find it, yeah,
I'm sure you'll look for it this afternoon.  Yeah, I know the routine, i'll check back
again next week.

Hi property management company, we have hot water, but I can't get the boiler 
turned on properly to give us heat in the house, can someone make the 1 minute drive 
from your office to my house and show me how?
Um, hi again, nobody called me back last week like you said, (insert same request as above)
Hi, it's been a month now and I haven't received a call back, it's really getting cold.
 
Hi bike shop, do you have any more of these Powerbars? No, well, can you order a box of them for my husband? Great, thanks.  Hey, while I'm here, my husband
lost this piece off his new Oakley sunglasses - can you order a replacement?
Hi, it's been a week and I was told to come back today for the PowerBars and sunglass piece. 
Do you have them, no, hua, you say you didn't order them yet, I should come back
next Monday...um ok.
