Waiting game

We've got guests in town. The phone hasn't gone at work for an hour. The email box is clear. So why the stupid salesperson from India who's kept myself and Charlie here working on a deal they don't understand for the last two hours and looks likely to not happen this century while keeping us both from dinner and HK's nightlife is a question who's answer is forever unknowable. It's gone beyond sadism. It's gone beyond a joke. It's kept me from my kids. It's unforgivable and sadly all too common.

Here's the final quote: "Just got off the phone with the customer and they want more from the deal and will do it in a few days instead. Thanks and have fun."

Bite me.

I keep telling you, this is what happens when companies outsource call centres to other countries. these guys get 5 spare minutes, they are angry that sri lanka beat australia in the cricket when they couldn't, and they feel the need to lash out at any australian they know.....
