Telecommunication Pillows

'Thank you for taking part in this poll, sir. Here's the first question: What the heck makes you so arrogant to think your opinion could have any kind of importance, sir?'

I no longer migrate. It's easier to just telecommute.

'Martha, I actually reached a human being.'

'Please... take... a... moment... to... complete... our... brief... survey... to... help... improve... customer... satisfaction... '

'R2-D2 is not in. Please leave a message after the beep-wheep-zip-booop ...'

'Good morning. I'd like to talk about double glazing issues.'

"Due to heavy call volume, your wait time will be six years."

"I want to report a nuisance caller!"
