Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

I like music. You can put the phone down and still hear the constant “still on hold” sound, when it stops you know it’s being answered.

Given to me it’s a tool for that purpose, the actual music doesn’t really matter as long as it’s constant and lound enough. Probably best not to be any music I like, I’m never waiting on hold for good reasons so best not to associate songs I like with a bad experience.

I hate how the music gets stuck in my head or has associations I’d rather not mix with my displeasure when dealing with.

That and my cynical view of aussie companies trying to look local using kiwi music (while the call taker is wherever is cheapest)

Thanks to 2degrees broadband call centre wait times, I can not listen to Radioactive by Imagine Dragons without becoming annoyed.
