“H-hello? I’m sorry to be ungrateful, but I’m afraid the pizza I ordered with you came back without pepperoni… I don’t want to be a bother, j-just send the pepperonis and I’ll place them myself… thank you, sorry again”

Bro, I have actually ordered a pizza in the past, gotten a completely different size with a completely different order, and was too afraid to call back and ask for my actual pizza, because I didn't want to bother the minimum wage people. I just threw it in the garbage.

True. I have to phone a guy soon but first I need to draw the conversation flow chart.

Isn't that the truth

You know what I really hate? That distorting hold music with periodic PLEASE WAIT messages that all the doctor's offices in my area use. Talking to doctor's office receptionists isn't really an issue for me, but being on hold fucking sucks.

Especially horrible when the interjection of the police weight message pauses the music just long enough to make you think it is a real human who picked up the phone.

Edit: lmao don't comment when tired

...Verses: OMG! DID YOU SEE THAT PIECE OF NEWS THAT HAPPENED JUST AN HOUR AGO THAT ONLY HAPPENED TO A FEW PEOPLE YOU'VE NEVER MET NOR CARE TO MEET, BUT I'M GOING TO TELL YOU ABOUT IT FOR THE NEXT TEN MINUTES REGARDLESS OF YOUR INTEREST OF THE SUBJECT!? OH!? I NOW HAVE TO SHARE A THING THAT I JUST THOUGHT ABOUT THAT IS BARELY CONNECTED TO THE PIECE OF NEWS YOU HAD NO INTEREST IN HEARING IN THE FIRST PLACE.

2-5 minutes in, you're wondering if this person will ever stop talking for more than a minute, or are you doomed to be in limbo of wanting to tell them you would rather talk about something with more sustainance than go on and on about stuff that just happends and doesn't change how you view the world, nor how you will finish your day.

Later on, you're wondering why you looked like the kind of person who would even give a damn about what they brought up in the first place. And so the restart of the inner battle starts, if people like these are so dense that they have no clue of how disregarded you feel in the moment or how...

HEY! ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING?!

...Have you ever thought about shutting the hell up and just let the world happen for just 10 minutes without you blasting your word vomit onto it and those that live in it?!

WHY WOULD YOU SAY SUCH A THING? THAT HURTS.

(...AAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!)
