The Automated Answering Service

The Automated Answering Service By Elton Camp What I used to be able to do, now I can’t If I called and got a person, think I’d faint This voice gives a list of number to punch And it’s not just a few, but a big bunch When I finally guess at which one to pick It always bring the very same inane trick All agents are busy with others to help Whenever I hear that, I just want to yelp Please hold as we answer in the order received That’s something that’s really hard to be believed Repeatedly I hear the recording of some ornery cuss “Please keep on holding. Your call is important to us.” If that were true, then more agents they would hire Even if a few of their vice presidents they had to fire In view of how long completion of those calls can take I wonder if the Guinness Book they are trying to make
