Funny moments at work: I work in a call centre, right? It was my job, today, to call people on behalf of the Wellington-Dufferin Regional Health Unit. My computer randomly generates numbers, which I call. Now, when I say random, I mean random. We get payphones, erotic massage parlours, everything. Well, today I dialed my number, and began my intro:
"Hi, this is Shannon, I'm calling on behalf of the Wellington Dufferin Health Unit, how are you today?"
"Uuum.....ok, I suppose, how can I...help you?" I noted her confusion, and rushed to assure her.
"We're not telemarketers, we're calling about a research study on behalf of the health unit."
"Oh, yes, but you see, you've just called the Wellington Dufferin Health Unit."
At least she knows the selection is unbiased...
Anyways, I'm wiped and I have a painting and an essay to do. Christmas may yet occur, financially, so long as I keep working long shifts and don't die in the process. Pax.
