Only funny when it's not you whose bank account/ telephone/ electricity supply is stuffed!   :well

A few Companies now instruct their Call Centre staff to say that they are in Melbourne.
That still isn't a guarantee that you will be able to understand the accent!   :o

The real Call Centres are lines of cubicles that stretch to the horizon.   :'(

That old dear at least is intelligible    :phone
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

One of those calls I had was from "Microsoft" regarding a problem I had with my computer...

"Computer? " said I "Which computer??" 

"Oh" said they "Your main one, how many do you have??"

"Two hundred" said I , "Do you know where you have called??? "

After a moment stunned silence, the reply was "Two hundred?? I dont know where We have called"

" Tis the Federal Police, Computer Crimes Department. Could you please hold for a few moments?? I have nearly completed tracing your call."
