BoostedXT 0 #28 May 18, 2005 I called Wolf Camera a while back and I got an India number. I was pissed because no matter what I said the female who I couldnt understand just kept repeating the same thing over and over again... Me: I never got it even though it was shipped and delivered ont he 16th. Her: Delivered on the 16th anymore questions sir? Me: I NEVER GOT IT ON THE 16TH. Her: Delivered on the 16th anymore questions sir? Me: Are you dumb? I NEVER GOT IT! Her: Delivered on the 16th anymore questions sir? Me: Can I talk to a manager.....you are of no service. Her:Delivered on the 16th anymore questions sir? I hung up and told her to DIAF.....

Mayberry 0 #30 May 18, 2005 Art imitates life imitates art. There was a play in town over the weekend called "Alladeen" which is based on this very thing. Supposedly it's based on an overseas call center & how they try to "Americanize" the workers there to make them more believable/appealable to the people on the other end of the line. Google Alladeen.
