This is just a general venting about annoying stupid people.
Beepers.
These are the people that are trying to go through the automated system for whatever reason, and for some reason when they get a representative, they are still pressing buttons.
Here's the confusing thing. I've called our phones before. When you make a mistake, it gives you 2 tries to correct it, and then gives an apology and says it's going to transfer you to a representative. Then, usually, we've got a 5-10 second hold time before they get a rep.
And I still hear beeps all the freaking time. Loud, screeching, burning-a-hole-in-my-brain beeps.
More bizarre, is the longest possible question in the automated system asks for your telephone number. That's 10 digits. Most questions involve 1 button.
Somehow, and God knows how, I get calls all the freaking time starting off with like 15 beeps. I've counted 15 beeps before. How the hell....?
Why do people just keep pressing buttons like that? Are they pressing at random? And they're not always elderly, either, occasionally you have some young and intelligent-sounding people doing that. Those are the ones that floor me.
Grr
