Thank you. I recently got stuck in that situation with my electric company. I kept in an automated loop, getting no information or any where but frustrated.
ReplyDeleteYou're right this is the ultimate example of frustration. Ironically, many years ago, I actually had a job where I was the Automated Response Unit directing people where to go when they had cable problems. They finally stopped using my voice when guys kept making risque comments and solicitations to the customer service reps about how they wanted to meet the person behind the sexy voice. (lol)
