new pet peeve

a huge pet peeve of mine is someone making me feel stupid or insulting my intelligence and this can happen in an instant and without trying to hard....see, i only have to feel like you are challenging my brain and it's on...for instance if i have checked something and rechecked then you go behind me and recheck, yet again...it is on like donkey kong...i know it sounds stupid but, i am intelligent and i know it....okay, that sounded super conceited but, i am pretty conceited or convinced, rather when it comes my brains...now, i don't claim to know everything, although if you ask my father i claimed that many times when i was seventeen but, with age comes the knowledge that there are so many things you can never or will never know or have the time to learn or even really care about knowing...so, i don't know everything and concede that to others...i have a friend to knows engineering, another who knows tons of trivial facts and all about birds, and yet another that knows about everything about jewelery...so i don't claim super genius power...only normal genius power...this being said today...i was insulted by an automated service...and a new pet peeve was born

see...yes, i checked your website and no, it cannot help me and will never be able to help me with this issue that i am calling about today

and yes, i am sure that it is faster than waiting in que, yet again, for another agent that is incompetent but, again the website cannot help me and thank you for telling me how many people are in front of me in que and exactly how many minutes it will take to be served by a human

and yes i know you have an "faq" section on your website and online help with chat but, no i have tried it before and calling in is the only way to remedy this problem

and if i have to say i want an "agent" one more time i think i am going to throw my cell out the window...[oh, wait then i would be in que with sprint trying to get a new phone and that would just cost me $50 bucks]...okay...am trying to calm down before i take these mechanical insults out on the customer service agent that will eventually be answering this phone....i hate automated systems

it's like a person who can't stand the silence and has to fill it with meaningless bullshit that you didn't really want to know or even care about but, they are so uncomfortable without noise they have to keep talking constantly and mindlessly...i wonder if they are the kind of people to lend their voices to be used in the automated systems...that would be a perfectly annoying job for them to have...as annoying in person as they are over the phone....maybe that job would make you happy if you were sadistic enough to know just how insulting you were being to people...but, most of those kind of people don't think they are annoying
