"Hi this is a courtesy call from Sprint.."

"What?!?!"

"Uh. This is your wireless carrier."

"I can't hear you, I'm in the MALL and it's really loud. What do you need?"

"We're calling about your upgrade."

"WHAT?"

When I make it home today, I'm not taking one step out of the door. Between the drunk driving university kids, angry commuters, and the Black Friday bargain hunters, it's going to be a virtual blood bath out there.

Safe at home playing video games. 🙂

i work in a call center with carrier deposits, on a normal day we take between 15-20 calls in an 8hr shift, don't get me wrong i like getting paid to sit here and do nothing, but at the same time it gets hard to stay awake after awhile

You should just go to her house late at night, and wait until she starts to doze off. Then yell as loud as you can:

"YOU'RE NOT SLEEPING ARE YOU?"


Then run away. 😲 đŸ¤Ŗ
