Trashed Time1. Hold for 47 min with Verizon, go to the back bedroom, leave the phone on speaker...and they answer but I'm in the back bedroom! Back to the drawing board...
2. Call Comcast Cable, hold for 20 minutes, go to the bathroom with the phone on mute and when "the guy" answers I forget he's on MUTE....and we're both saying "Hello!" "Hello?" Hello...Hello...Click. OMG he gave up, he's gone. Well, I might as well wash my hands and call back. Great, now it's busy!
3. Make a call....hold forever, after 3 transfers and by the time someone answers you forget who you called. *sigh* so you have to say "Who is this?" and they answer "Who is this?" Great, now I'm playing "Tell the Truth" okay, I forgot who I was holding for, who I called and even what I wanted. Luckily the guy laughs and I'm not mad anymore.
Has any of this ever happened to you? Well, if not you're perfect and I'm not. You can remind me next time you see me.
Solution: Post a note on the phone or by the phone that says; I just dialed Verizon / Cell.
My problem isn't just the guy that put me on hold forever and a day, it's getting busy with something else while I'm holding. We all get distracted don't we....oops, I forgot, not you...you're perfect. Okay for those of you who are perfect, here's a "Pointless Website" so you can waste some time on purpose!
What are you wasting time on? What's your solution? Want help finding one or figuring it out?
