Self-important call taker - 10 minutes
I was calling a warmline. . . a warmline. Warmlines are lines where they don’t take crisis calls. But on this warmline, they supposedly shorten the calls to give other people a chance to talk. But they make the rules up as they go along.
Given how petty and chidish that staff is, I don’t think it’s a good idea.
I’ve found that people who don’t like you will give you 10 minutes when the normal time should be 20. There’s not much anyone can say in 10 minutes.
There’s a woman who thinks she’s so clever in telling me every time that they’re busy and she only has 10 minutes for me. What a stupid, self-important, self-absorbed girl she is.
I talked for 10 minutes and hung up.
In hindsight, I wish I had hung up before the call because it was more irritating than helpful, knowing that she was playing a game.
I wish there were more warmlines available in the morning/day.
