#Customer service point

Today the kids wanted to play Takeaway. I don’t mind playing Takeaway, because I can usually do something else with my hands. My role is to place an order on my pretend phone, and receive it from the delivery driver. I’m quite good at Takeaway.

Bear, aged 8, was the leader of this particularly chaotic takeaway. I overheard them pretending to phone another customer - customer order 125 - and explaining that their delivery would be delayed by approximately fifteen minutes due to a “rockslide.”

“Hey, wait a minute, what was that?” I asked.

“Are you order number 125?”

“No, I’m order number 165.”

Bear said severely, “we don’t give information about other people’s orders.”

“That’s very professional,” I said, “but what was that about a rockslide?”

Bear said, “that’s not your order.”

“Sorry,” i said, justly chastened. “Was it a big rockslide? Is it on the news?”

“If you need information about your order, you will get it.”

My pretend phone then pretend rang, so I had to answer it. It was the takeaway.

“Number 165? Your order will be delayed by five minutes.”

“Oh,” I said, “why?”

“Because that’s the time it takes us answering all your stupid questions.”

How do you think the boys are going to do in the fast food torture chamber? Other than Azul this is just his normal life

probably slightly better than if they'd actually been wearing rollerskates like I was hoping they would be, but I'm sure there will be plenty of total disasters regardless! 👍👍

personally I just really enjoy that despite the summary only being a couple of sentences long, they still took the time to reassure us that Crowley is making them do this.

imagine being a rando civilian ds9 resident trapped behind forcefields as the station slowly ratchets up to blow itself to pieces in civil defense and then you look up and see the local tailor powerwalking irritably towards ops while the lockdown parts for him like the red sea before moses. and he's presumably caught in a permanent eye roll over every ATTENTION BAJORAN WORKERS as he goes

I think Flying Scotsman should emote more with his dumbo ears smoke deflectors...

He can move them, so that's an extra emoting element for sure!

I think Louis and Madeleine would have been very good friend if she had not died because they are the only two in the entire vampire community who know how to run a business.

I had a shrink appointment today and while I could not see it I knew my doc was going through the five stages of grief while I explained my fool proof strategy for doing my t shots despite a crippling fear of needles: By abusing my vastly more crippling fear of being an inconvenience.

My mother and I play phasmophobia together every week. she usually has a pretty limited time to do this bc she's like. a doctor and a college professor whos always busy. So I asked her to just. hold me to doing them. We don't start playing until the shot is done. so my needle fear doesn't matter because now it's Wasting™ her time and I have to do it quick. Using one neurosis to defeat another.

It's a horrible coping mechanism because it's feeding the inconvenience fear, but it is definitionally a coping mechanism.

you know when you call customer service and it starts with "this conversation will be recorded/transcribed, do X if you do not wish to be transcribed"? anyway i HOPE someone reads the transcription of me yelling at the norwegian post's AI answering machine. it goes something like "TALK TO HUMAN. TALK TO HUMAN PLEASE. LET ME TALK TO REAL PERSON. I HATE YOU LET ME TALK TO CUSTOMER SERVICE. CUSTOMER SERVICE REAL PERSON PLEASE. CUSTOMER SERVICE HUMAN. TALK TO REAL HUMAN" in my most exaggeratingly bokmål speech

What is wrong with him

[carrotsofthepirabbean]

Shame y'all are being so negative about the murderbot trailer. It looks good and funny but so many people decided that it couldn't possibly be good cause they didn't like the casting so are now looking at everything with shit tinted lenses. Must suck to be so negative about everything

i've been working in customer service for about 7 yrs now and it still absolutely baffles me that "follow provided instructions to achieve desired result" is somehow an unfathomable fucking concept to so many people of all possible ages and demographics

I love it when Basetao customer support uses emoticons :)
