"Why the f*ck won't you hire me??" (long, language)

[spookysonata]

I was at work the other day when I picked up the phone...five seconds into the call I was already mentally composing this story for CS.

Most of you know what a relay call is. For those who don't, it's a service that allows deaf people to type their end of a conversation into a specially modified phone, and the operator reads the typed words to the hearing recipient of the phone call. Also, the operator is duty-bound to read everything typed, word for word, no censorship allowed.

Ready? Of course you are!

M: me
R: relay operator
C: caller

R: "This is a relay call" (spiel about how it works)
M: "Yes, go ahead."
C: *types*
R: " 'You fucking fuckers, why have you not read my fucking resume, it's the best fucking one you got.' Go ahead."
M: *trying not to giggle, as it sounds so odd in a flat monotone*
M: "What is your name, and when did you turn in a resume?"
C: *types*
R: " 'The same day I had my penis in your mother's mouth. I will work for below minimum wage, but I can't stand living with my old-ass mother anymore and I need a fucking job.' Go ahead."
M: "On the off chance that this isn't a prank call, may I just say it's a bad idea to talk like that to a potential employer."
C: *types*
R: " 'You are a shitty company.' Go ahead."
M: "Uh huh, goodbye, over and out."
*click*

WOW. Either that was the angriest deaf person EVAH or someone went to a lot of trouble to make the untraceable prank call.

[Phone Jockey]

That is just rude & who's willing to bet this loser didn't get the job. *sigh*

It really bugs me when people say "over and out"
Over means 'end of transmission, reply expected'
Out means 'end of transmission, no reply expected'

So essentially your're contradicting yourself.

However if that's the wording you have to use you have my sympathies

Wow, who pissed in their cherrio's this morning?

[Custard Chick]

Back in our freshman year of college my boyfriend and his friends would use the relay call service to prank friends, friend's girlfriends, and a friend's mom once.

They never did anything like THAT though.

Actually.. That comes from the Military. Out means you have signed off. Over means you have stopped transmitting. When you have a single channel, you can step on the other person's speech. So when you are transmitting and want a response you say over. When you are signing off and not accepting replies, you say out. If you don't say out and someone adds something they won't know if you simply had no reply or didn't hear it.

Yes and having been trained in that too, it kind of bugs me as well. But not from people who haven't been trained in it. It's a common misconception that "over and out" is correct, so I'm personally fine with reading it here.

Say it to me over the radio in an actual situation though ... and we might have words.

I wonder what his resume said?

[Interior Desecrator]

Hey...how did you get a copy of my resume?

Definitely kidding about that. But I think I might have injured myself laughing over that one!

I hope that was a joke. Unless the caller was thinking he was Cher's char. in Mask. Except that char. wasn't that crude.

Can we assume this cat never went to Harvard, Princeton or Yale?

Most likely dropped out or was kicked out of school in third grade!!!

[WhiteWolf]

so I can buy more pants and pimpjuice from Gravekeeper.... yo.

ah crap.... Laurelpoacher I was drinking when I read that!
the worst part about it, I remember reading the very post that "Pimpjuice" was introduced to us all now! XD

[Anriana]

I love relay calls. They let me get so much surfing in and the operators never raise their voice! Of course, the service always seems to hire the slowest possible typists they can find.
