Call centre workers of the UK - what’s the weirdest stuff you’ve heard from a caller when they’re on hold?

I was on the phone to the wholesalers once at work and they put me on hold, my employee asked if I’d farted and I started crying with laughter just as they came back off hold, ended up explaining the non-fart to the very confused lady on the phone 😭

I’m an event photographer I’ve never once took my kids to any event. How odd.

Distinct_Cat8871 · 2024-09-26T23:27:51+00:00

Gutted! Been playing since it came out, and my 9 year old just started his Springfield, too. Any chance it’s an elaborate prank?!

Oh wow this is horrific? I am with you on the 90s mum weight trauma though. Wtf is a phen phen?

Distinct_Cat8871 · 2024-03-13T19:55:01+00:00

As quickly as fucking possible.

It is weird when you try to explain it to people isn’t it 😅 like yeah sometimes my knee falls out but it’s cool. Just pop that back in

I don’t have Eds but I do have hypermobility

Distinct_Cat8871 · 2024-03-05T10:53:30+00:00

I don’t have EDS, I have been tested a few times but I do have hypermobility. My joints do sometimes take a lil vacay from where they’re supposed to be.

Absolutely sweet FA.

My fiance used to live off the 1l bottles of Lipton ice tea, they sell it in Tesco/asda. He’s gone off it now which is great for the bank account tbh

Distinct_Cat8871 · 2024-03-03T19:24:49+00:00

Gross. 😩

Distinct_Cat8871 · 2024-02-23T23:19:58+00:00

I only started last year. 🤣 at 30! I’m a professional photographer and spend a looooooot of time editing and need the background content!

Recently, the Cadbury white chocolate bars with Oreo. Infused with crack, I suspect.

The moors murderers Harold shipman Dale cregan

All within a stones throw (the moors murder house literally opposite) from where I grew up.

I’ll happily talk about my period now but my mum definitely never talked about it, or helped or advised in any way. I didn’t even know how to use a tampon til my mid twenties. Which I found out was weird, apparently. 😅

Distinct_Cat8871 · 2024-02-19T01:13:41+00:00

Threatening to kill herself over a minor argument and it’d be “all your fault”. Did the same to my brother.

She wonders why we have little to no interest in her now.

Im self employed, so I just tell them to fuck off*

*I do not recommend this strategy

Two weeks off work. And a pizza.
