Stupid Story 05-04-05

It amazes me that people tell me I am impatient... this morning I had to call a company, and I ended up speaking with *8* people before I got a reasonable answer. Now, I know what your saying... it's all me right? One of my conversations went something like this:

Person #1:I cannot help you in this department. I will need to forward you, please hold on.
[BEEP-BEEP-BEEP-BEEP as he dials the extension]
[pause]

Person #1: Hello?
Person #2: Yeah.
Person #1: Let me try that again, hold on.
[BEEP-BEEP-BEEP-BEEP as he dials the extension]
[pause]

Person #1: Hello?
Person #2: Yeah, I'm still here.
Person #1: Let me try that again, hold on.
[BEEP-BEEP-BEEP-BEEP as he dials the extension]
[pause]

Person #1: Hello?
Person #2: I am still here.
Person #1: Let me try that again, hold on.
[BEEP-BEEP-BEEP-BEEP as he dials the extension]
[pause]

Person #1: Hello?
Person #2: Yeah....
Person #1: My phone must be broke... can you just call back?

It's that high level of professionalism that I respect. I mean, this guy was one step away from asking me if I want fries with that.
