    Ladies and gents,

    I got a phone call today. I accepted it, as my Vitamin R ringtone by Chevelle was going off. A guy, who sounded a bit like a computer was on the other end. He talked to me about stuff, bit shady. I was a bit un easy, but answered a few questions. Made a tragic blunder of saying my real birth day, month, and year...shame on that. I then heard the alarm ring in my head and started asking questions. Lucky for me, my speech problem paid off and he didn't understand me when I said my name.

    -_- I never did a online survey for a walmart gift card...pal.


    Tell us your tragic or sad or even funny stories of call centers.

    Because most of those stories are boring, stupid or boring. The only thing keeping this thread alive is me *****ing at you.

    **** off Darth, this is some interesting **** for a Thursday morning. ETM is the mother****ing genius of the day and you're acting just like jock-riding like a haterade sipper. Let's nourish the thread, not tarnish it. Nourish it with words of encouragement and joyous laughter. I need some more caffeine.



    Now about that phone number (and SSN for LL)...

    Guys.

    The other day, I went to the store, picked up some things, brought my items to the cashier where I paid for my items and drove home.

    Ok, I lied. ETM's story isn't interesting at all. I feel horrible for lying.

    I lied about feeling horrible for lying, I don't feel horrible at all.

    But this made me feel a little nauseous.

    But, did the cashier smile at you and talk to you? Because that means she wants you.

    I miss GR87.

    I use to work at a call center. I saw a man die in there once, too. Guy I sat next to had a stroke while on the line with a customer. Only interesting thing that happened while I was working at it. Well, some guy told me I interrupted a threesome attempt and killed it, and I was glad. Because anyone who lies about that is a dick, and if they aren't lying, they don't deserve it if they're dumb enough to pick up the ****ing phone as it's getting started.

    That's the only call center stories I got.

    Pot roast.

    And let me tell you something REALLY interesting.

    The guy in front of me saw I only had one item, and let me go in front of him.

    You met all 3 of the thread's required criteria.
