Pet peeve # 2,347,843
Topic: ramblings
Here's another notch for my "pet peeve" belt...
A member calls in today to talk about his account and puts me on hold after a few minutes. He then comes back a few minutes later and talks again about his account. He then asks me to hold on again, only this time he didn't mute me. So I hear in the backgroung him saying...
"Welcome to Jack In The Box, may I take your order?"
The guy was FREAKIN' WORKING while he was calling to talk about his account!
It wouldn't have bugged me so much if I didn't have to repeat myself 3 times to get his story straight...
...geez...
"Mr. Madison, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul."
-- from the movie "Billy Madison"
