Finally, days off....yay
Quiet night last night, thankfully.
Sherlock
Me: "Good evening, <company> TV"
SC: "I'm calling to expose the mystery!"
Wait, no, don't tell me. Let me guess: Miss Scarlet in the library with the candlestick. Did I get it? Was I at least close? No? Ah well. Oh, right. Go away.

SC: "Ok baby, thank you."
You're welcome, sugar. Do you want some Doritos too? That’s what they pay me for you know: Love and Doritos. I am a purveyor of nacho cheese dusted affection.

SC: "The machine didn't print me no receipt."
Me: "Oh, alright. The machine's probably out of paper then."
SC: "Huh?"
Me: "Its out of paper."
SC: "What?"
Me: "The machine has no paper left in it."
SC: "Uh…"
Me: "The machine is out of paper. That’s why it couldn't print you a receipt."
SC: "I don't understand, lemme give the phone over to someone else."
<twitch>. Machine. Paper. Out of. Receipt. No. Jeebus Crisps, how did you even manage to operate the machine if you can't grasp the concept of paper and ink? Were you even using it properly? Perhaps it didn't print you a receipt because you were licking the screen like a cow licking salt off a post. You said you put money in the machine….are you sure? You didn't like wedge it underneath the machine or wave it at the machine while clicking your heels together or something did you? Was it Monopoly money? Are your shoes even on the right feet? Argh!
I'm Mean
Me: "Good evening, <company name>."
SC: "Yeah, a pipe burst here and there's water everywhere!"
Me: "Ok-"
SC: "Nah, I'm lying."
That's ok, so was I. In fact I hope your evening ends with you waking up face down in an alley with a sore arse and $5 in your back pocket along with a note that says "Thanks for a wonderful evening - XOXO". Preferably signed by a fine lady with a name like "Bubba", "Big Jim" or "Johnny Turbine".
( I'm so mean. )
Disbelief
Police called once for a guy they had in custody. Police were informed we could not reach a lawyer at this time. Police cals back and explain the guy they have in custody doesn't believe them when they tell him we couldn't reach a lawyer and asks if I could tell him myself. Operator is overcome with ecstatic glee.
Apparently, The Man™ is once again holding people down.
Just....no
I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't call me while taking a whizz. Kthxbye.
Ahhh....freedom
( On a side note....why is the board replacing the word "Officer' with "Iron Maiden"? ;p )
