Yep have had this happen multiple times. Also happens if you say operator or representative too many times.
They know.

Honestly if the people who continue to do this DID face beatings and actual consequences it wouldn’t be as rampant.

I did after a fall. I’m a few mins from the hospital. Ambulance ride would be $500+ even with insurance. Uber: $10. I hit my head and needed a CT scan, literally no reason to take an ambulance out of service for a ride there.

He doesn’t have time for movies, Fox News has a banner that says BREAKING NEWS. Don’t change that channel, a new transgender M&M is threatening America.

Th only thing that can stop a bad piece of corn with a gun is a good piece of corn with a gun. It’s too bad there wasn’t a good one around.
You can laugh at this, but it has a kernel of truth.

For any call to an automated system I usually throw a huge run-on sentence at them when it says “in a few words tell me how I can help you.”
“I’m calling because I need help with my internet and I just don’t know why it won’t connect and I called last week but no one helped and please help me I just don’t know what to do and I need a representative to help because my internet won’t work.” You have to overwhelm the AI. It will prompt you to try a couple more times (“I’m sorry, I didn’t get that”) so do it again. After a few times it will transfer you to a person.
