Call Options

Have you ever made a call And got that robotic voice Telling you to make a choice Or no one will speak to you at all For English press 1 That was easy , I'm done But then it gives you several more options None of which are to your satisfaction And when you think you've finally gotten through You find that all the representatives are busy And by the time they get to you You forgot why you called, and you're a bit dizzy

Just hate it. Getting an operator from a foreign country almost always drives me to distraction. You got it right, my friend, you got it right. Allan

One good reason, at last, to explain why I don't have a phone.... Thanks for the idea, dear Joseph! I'll use this for sure! Blessings, Hanitra

OMG!!!!! I cannot tell you how much I despise talking to machines, especially when I am trying to speak to customer service! What you describe in your poem is the reason why I have anger issues lol. Absolutely love this!

Cute one..It ususally is someone who lives in a foreign land and doesn't speak English very well or can't understand English or both.I had tech support when I first got a computer and it usually was a man who was from a foreign land..I did not know computer terminology and he did not understand English nor could he understand English but we managed to get through the process over several hours.Whew!!!..Thanks for stopping by..ISara
