Someone please kill me. How can people possibly be this stupid? If your card is expired then it's OBVIOUSLY NOT PAYING YOUR FRICKIN' BILL, CHANGE IT YOU GOD DAMN ASSMUNCH.
Hands Mortious a gun. Help yourself, just tell me when you're done. 
Am I cursed or something?
Welcome to the Jungle. We got fun and games.

Zaza had this to say about Knight Rider:
I've been working ISP tech support for a week now, and I've only had one call from a person that wasn't at least acceptably courteous and intelligent.Am I cursed or something?
No. You're a tech support agent who's only taken one call.
Accents can got to hell and die. HELL. AND. DIE.
I don't work in a cubical, RIG. It's a new-age office and I work in a.. er.. "pod".

Mightion Defensor obviously shouldn't have said:

Nope.
I dunno. Maybe I've just been lucky.

Kahuna Ryuu spewed forth this undeniable truth:
I thought you'd be use to evil by now, Mort?
There is evil and then there is doing tech support.
Mort is evil. Tech support would make Stalin cry.

Vorbis had this to say:
Welsh?
Thick african accents are incredibly hard to understand over the phone.

Verily, Mortious doth proclaim:

The Welsh just scare me.

Thick african accents are incredibly hard to understand over the phone.
So are indian, jamaican, and southern accents.
A few words of advice:
"Can't you give me some compensation for the fifteen minutes that I didn't have channel 155?"
"No. Is there anything else I can do for you?"

Over the mountain, in between the ups and downs, I ran into Random Insanity Generator who doth quote:
When I was working for St. Ream (Stream International, a massive call center) I did 4 11 hour days... Sunday, Monday I work, Tuesday, Wedensday I'm off, Thursday Friday I work, Saturday I'm off...Was a rather interesting schedual..
I worked that for a while.
I fucking hated it. Three off days was nice but god DAMN that extra two hours on your work day HURTS.

Yeah... I learned to enjoy my days off... because I didn't do jack shit but work the other days... By the time travel to and from work is over, breakfast, dinner and a bit of time to just relax it's already past bed time.
Joy.

How.... Mortious.... uughhhhhh:

I had to work drive thru once with no voice. I had to scream at the top of my lungs just to whisper into the headset.

It... won't get any better.
After a few weeks, you will start having very vivid dreams of actually gorily murdering the stupid entities known as customers. After a month, you will, most likely, be ready to commit suicide if you hear a phone ring.
Welcome to the world of support.
Remember these two things:
1) All customers suck. Some just suck more than others.
2) Down, not across.

I don't know what you mean, JooJoo. Explain.
Open plan = big ass room with nothing but desks and computers.
But seriously, there is a bright side to this. After a few days of this, you're going to come home one day and be prepped to make a RP post that will forever establish your place one of the great evils of the boards. Just do it for your customers. Do it to your customers.
