Told this by a customer just now:

"You have the patience of a saint."

No, I just have a mute button, you git.

I don't have a mute button :(

[valancy17.livejournal.com]

yeah, but unless your mute button mutes the lusers who call you, you deserve to be complimented on your patience. You may not listen to it all, but you do have to waste your time waiting for them to finish. :)

ahh, praise whomever for the mute button! However, when it fails, thats when Shit really hits the fan! heheheh ...

Mute button tourettes, as I like to call it, really reduces stress.

I don't like it when customers say that.

"You're being so patient"
"No, I'm hating every minute of it. Hurry the fuck up"

"I guess you need to be patient to do this job"
"Yes it would probably help"

God bless said button.

[malgrep.livejournal.com]

I would trade the mute button for a smite one.

[jahbulon.livejournal.com]

I'd trade lunch breaks for a smite button.

A true classic.

My usual response is a rather surprised "I'm glad that's the impression I'm giving!"

If I'm ecstatic that day, they get a noncommital "Mmm." Otherwise they get freezing undead silence radiating down the line, turning their jabbering selves into popsicles.

Luser: I'm sorry. I'm a chronic complainer.
Me: Well, I'm a chronic listener to complainers, so it works out.
