Free to everybody: My subtle comeback

[DocNugent]

When I was connected to the third customer service rep that morning, I got one with an accent so thick I could only understand about every fifth word.

Out of general frustration with the automated runaround and now with this individual, I interrupted whatever she was saying with, "Excuse me. I pressed one for English."

Apparently, that's how you get connected to a supervisor, because that's who came on the line next.

Just thought I'd share in case anyone else finds a need to use my line (copyright pending).

Man, I've wanted to do that for so long! But just don't think the amplitude would be that effective on the other end.

Doc, that's a winner! Very funny.

I think its going to be funny as shit when the East Indian with the thick accent calls again about the Microsoft issues I supposedly have with my computer and I start with your line....... .

He called me an asshole last time when I called him a liar...he said his name was Brian.

I said..... "East Indian parents don't call their kids Brian."

So I called him a liar and said..... "Why are you lying to me? Lying is no way to start an adult conversation."

Then he called me an asshole. Nice.

I said........ "Then let this asshole talk to your supervisor."

He hung up.

I'm the liar when I talk to those folks, and it's been at least a dozen times. I swear up and down that we have no computer, so we can't be having any trouble with it.

I think my 'press one' line only works when you've made the call to a company, but ICBW.

Either way, just remember our motto: We're retired, so we have all day to waste your time.

That's the funny part Doc....

Think of the confusion when its said to the Telemarketer that calls.

It'll piss them off even more.
