At work we utilize a chat program with a bot to help take some of the call and chat load that comes into the spa on a daily basis. Now, it's not ideal and the bot really isn't all that great but it is still better than getting angry voice mails from people who have been trying to call for days on end without managing to get through. Anyhow, here's an example of some of the stuff we deal with. Keep in mind that this person called an hour after we closed and ended up speaking to the bot. I printed out the entire chat and have typed it out for your amusement, making the necessary changes for anonimity. Note that we closed at 5pm yesterday.

(Sent Dec 15th, 8:40am) Me: Good morning. This is <me> with <my> Spa. When you called in yesterday the spa was closed for the evening. On Tuesdays we close at 5pm and we do not have a live person available to answer the phone at that time. I am sorry that this lead you to have a less than desirable experience.
Now, there is a chance that the guy was half in the bag when he chatted in last night, but it was still a good laugh. And I can't help but wonder if this is how he speaks to a bot, how must he speak to others?! And I will admit that I told my coworker that with an attitude like buddy's that he'd have to work harder to please his girlfriend because he was exuding little dick energy.
