Hardest Time I Have Ever Had Holding My Tongue

Occasionally, 2nd Tier will request that the client call them directly. In that case, we leave the client a voice mail with the three contact numbers and leave it at that.

A client called to ream me a new one because no one at 2nd Tier was answering. I asked to verify the three numbers he was given...and he had two of them wrong.

But that wasn't what made me explode right after I disconnected the call.

This guy sounded JUST LIKE HOMESTAR.

After I gave him the correct numbers, I wanted to shout ARROWED! in my best Strong Bad voice.

N.B. Yes, I am fully aware that I am making fun of someone with a speech impediment. He was still a self-important jerk.

You get a mute button! I work in an internet cafe, and They come in here, and look me in the eye while making their crazy demands in cartoon voices, and I HAVE to keep a straight face!

Is your icon supposed to induce brain twitches?

Thanks to the wonders of web standards, it only induces brain twitches in Mozilla/Firefox users. Congratulations on selecting a superior browser! :D

Hahahaha.. On the subject, do you know why firefox runs gifs so quickly? Is there any way to slow it down at all?

It's actually the way they're "supposed" to be. For some reason, IE throttles them to a certain speed. So, if someone creates an icon with an absurdly high speed and tests it in IE, they never find out.

I created this icon back when I was using Netscape 4.7, and that's my excuse :)

ah I see..

P.S Don't use netscape as an excuse.

I don't understand how some of the adults that call me can get by in life with the terrable communication skills they possess.
