I like the creepy cat icons... Where do you pick them up from? If you mentioned it, I don't remember....
I will not shove “it” up my backside. I do not know what “it” is, but in my many years on this earth I have figured out that that particular port hole is best reserved for emergency exit only. -GK

From my vast supply of cat macros gleaned from all over the Internet ( or occasionally created just for work ) . At work I stick a cat macro picture to every shift report every day. I just don't mirror that part here cus image hosting is a biznitch. I've gone through almost 300 so far at work. But I still have 100 or so to spare.
My office amuses me. I used some pic of this guy flashing a kitten, not a peep. Next day I used a particularly hideous group of hairless kittens and I got horrified email from half the staff and most of management. Cracked me up. So I kept throwing hairless cats at them for the rest of the week. ^^
Has this been said? Has it been explained? WHERE THE HELL DO YOU WORK, anyway? You're a travel agent, no, something to do with security and/or emergencies? Bath...rooms...? This is not a question actually seeking answer, necessarily. I'm just expressing the fact that you seem to be the Jack of All Trades wrapped up in a surly, sarcasm-weilding, night-phone-answering exterior.
I have to say I've been wondering the same thing since I started coming to these forums.
It is a terrible thing to see and have no vision.

Just once I'd like to get through a week without a clerk at the 7/11 telling me "I'm always glad to see you because it means I get to go home soon!".
That just means that you go to 7/11 way too often.
Secrets
Me: "and your postal code?"
SC: "That I don't know."
Once these goons are done with you, they go to sleep for a few hours and then come and visit me. At least I get the sick pleasure of giving my clients the 'postal code book' (which is as thick as a brick) if they are truly pissing me off.
<Older female client of ours> offered me breakfast this morning. She did not specify when, where or in what context. I'm a bit afraid to leave the building now.
(FTR, he works in a call center with multiple clients, and late at night he gets to deal with 'em all! Lucky for...well, US! And he rides the Skytrain which is apparently just all kinds of fun...I'll have to come up to BC in the middle of the night sometime...)

I have to say I've been wondering the same thing since I started coming to these forums.
I work at a company that outsources call center resources to other companies that don't want, need or can't afford their own call center operation. We have no guidelines or restrictions as to what we can do for a client as long as it can be programmed into our software or they can provide us with the software that can handle it.
I quite literally have hundreds of clients that span god knows how many different types of calls: Tech support, medical/property/security/city district/utility/coroner/transit/etc emergencies, government agencies ( Both mine and the US's. ), infomercial lines ( ugh), order lines, consulting lines, account management, women's shelters, you name it I either have it or something close to it.
The problem is during the day all these calls are divided into types and taken by 5 different teams of operators. At night there's not enough volume to merit that much staff so there's only 2 graveyard ops that are trained to take ALL client types. Which is why my call variety is so incredibly varied.
Some of you have probably unknowingly talked to my company before when you called somewhere else.
Oh, and my family's scottish. We have our own tartan and everything. So I have a clear excuse to wear a kilt if I so desire. So na na. =p
My family is mostly Scottish too, but unfortunately being the U.K. mutt that I am, I'm not only both highland and lowland but I'm on both sides of the MacDonald blood-feud. I have no idea what plaid to wear, whatever will I do at weddings?
You're not doing me a favor by eating here. I'm doing you a favor by feeding you.
There would have to be a fire before I'd considering calling at 2am. What exactly is so urgent that it can't wait until morning?
Apparently, Pink camo. Also, hats.
3 Basic rules for ordering food.
- Order from the menu.
- If you order something that will take some time to cook, then be prepared to wait.
- Don't talk about Fight Club.
SC: "There's a car in the parking lot with its alarm going off!"
Me: "Unfortunately, that's not considered an emergency. "
Time for today's obscure reference for a film no one has ever seen. There was this movie called "Collision Course" that was basically the basis for the Rush Hour movies. Jay Leno played the "doesn't play by the rules" US cop and Pat "Mr Miyagi" Morita played the Asian "serious" cop who came here to help him recover a stolen prototype turbocharger. Anyway, at one point there's a car alarm going off. Pat Morita asks what they should do Leno replies something like. "All people do here when they hear a car alarm going off is yell 'Turn that shit off!'" Cue guy in background: "Turn that shit off!"

The title of "fangirl" has no age requirement, apparently.

I KNEW IT!!!!!!!!!! I mentioned something like that in an Off Topic post of mine.
Damn I'm a special kind of psychic.

Oooh! Oooh! I know! It was the guy that moved to sit behind me on the bus this morning.

Scotland is about forty to sixty degrees fahrenheit in JULY. I know this from personal experience. It's also a misty windy sort of place.
What year were you there? I was there last September and it was in the upper 60s F - low 70s. And the only time we really had any wind was at the Giant's Causeway in Northern Ireland (and that was mostly due to the remnants of Hurricane Gordon). As a matter of fact, it was in the low 80s in London!

At least you're not a damn Campbell! Which pretty much wiped out Clan Lamont.
