Tales from Reception Part 3

Dear Reception caller,

When I say: "Please hold on", I'm not actually putting you on hold. I'm looking for the number to switch you through.

So the guy I overheard yesterday telling his dog: "If you do that again it's doggy hell for you. That's 29. Another 96 and that's it. Doggy hell." should be a lesson to you.

This is great! Hurrah for jobs where you work with stupid clients.

I'm so grateful for your sympathy!

Still, you're getting more intelligence from conversations like these than you did from talking to certain of your former colleagues, I'm sure.

Oh God yes, if I had to hear one more anecdote about some music group from the 70s, I might have gone mad.

CTV said...

Oh come on, Hairy Scary Fairy was more likely to tell you anecdotes about '70s cultural NGOs.

i'll give you 125 chances.
does that make any sense at all? especially to a dog.

Perhaps it's in dog years?
