Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
Sister Communities:

That's a more recent thing, used to be that talking to phone support was like talking to a robot because they weren't allowed to go off script. I guess companies are realizing that customers don't want to be given the same unhelpful scripted response over and over again. They probably listened to enough angry recordings to figure that out.
At least in my case the first few sentences are relatively scripted. You know the standard shit like whose calling and what’s your code. Then it’s free form.
Then there are the people who call enough for me to recognize the caller ID lmao
