Odd Hold
I’m on hold this past week with my website hosting company with some questions about our account. I have a somewhat complex question/request for them which requires the customer service rep to put me on hold to obviously research it.
I don’t mind being put on hold as I am ever hopeful they come back with the solution. However, I was a bit shocked by the hold music when she put me on hold the first time.
The song was Another One Bites the Dust.
I kept waiting for the dial tone as surely she was preparing to hang up on me. I was relieved when she returned. I explained my question further at which point I was put on hold a second time.
I found myself thrust into the middle of Puff the Magic Dragon.
How bizarre. Oh, and I didn’t get my question solved.
