re: #372 Fat Bastard Vegetarian

Virginia 511 is a VRT system that I can use to check traffic and weather conditions. Takes no person (that the govt has to hire) and gives me the information.

The best thing about VRT? To me? Once your used to the cadence of the systems, you can interrupt the system without being rude to a person.

I called an office recently and the nonsensical way the human was required to answer (took 15 seconds), you know, something like, “Good Morning. Welcome to the ABC Company, where the customer is always first! This is Facility Gusthavson, it is my pleasure to assist you”.

I had to call three times that day, Facility answered every time, by the third time, I was violent.

I should probably switch to decaf.

They are required to stick to the script, because all calls may be monitored for quality assurance. Deviating from the script can lead to points off on their performance review.
