I work in a call centre and nothing is more disgusting as someone who smacks food in your ear while your working. Here is a novel idea, FINISH EATING BEFORE YOU FUCKING CALL. I don’t need to hear your molars pulpify the swill your eating. FUCK!

Pissed of phone lackey!

  1. Here’s what I do: tell the caller that I can’t understand what they’re saying, they seem to have called me at mealtime, and perhaps they could call me back at a time more convenient for them. Either that, or keep asking them to repeat themselves until they get fed up — get it? fed up? — and go away.

  3. or how about the wonderful sexual suggestions you get on the phone like “Hey its my b’day give me a freebie?” I just love it when people think they can use a 1 800 number for their own sexual wants and needs, get a blow up doll!! Or maybe its too expensive for you. I have worked in call centres and have gotten that a lot too so I can sympathize with the OP.

  4. try taking an after-hours furnace oil order from someone on the phone, with a screaming kid in their arms, with the TV blaring in the background! Then, tell them they have to pay an after-hours fee for delivery! That’s always an arguement waiting to happen! Of course, being an operator, I can’t fight back! I’ll take someone eating in my ear anyday over that scenario…
