Please pay attention as our menu has changed! This call may be recorded for training purposes-
For English press 1 - for Spanish press 2 - for all others press 3
If you know your party's extension press it now - otherwise stand by.
Your call may be answered in four minutes - we value your time.
Please do not hang up - you will lose your place in the queue.
While waiting we will entertain you with the Canadian Brass playing their holiday medley - featuring a tuba solo.
"Hallo!! can we help you?"
"Are you in Mumbai or Manila?" "If you are in Mumbai you are ahead of me."
"If you are in Manila it is tomorrow - and now I am so confused that I forgot why I called".
The other beauty is the call for a charitable pledge - it usually comes when you have something on the stove. If you succumb in a weak moment the caller will say "Thank you - shortly you will receive a call from my supervisor to confirm your pledge". so that instead of one irritating call, you now have two. It's enough to squeeze the Christmas spirit out of you. Bah humbug!
