And Holding...

I'm on hold with Continental again. Um, note to Continental: The HOLIDAYS are OVER. Thanks.

This time they remembered the hold music...except it is Guy-with-the-"I wish I could narrate movie trailers"-voice talking about Continental Airlines with "Jingle Bells" and "Frosty the Snowman" in the background. Now I am longing for silence...sweet, sweet silence.

Have you ever thought about calling the bank or an airline just so you could spend the afternoon on hold because that way you have something to do?

"Hey, Joe, whatcha doin'?"

"I'm sitting on hold."

Sounds better than saying "nothin'" now, doesn't it?

Well, now that I think about it, it really doesn't matter.

Truth be told this entire post is a complete waste of time and a testament to why I need to have more to do at work....

The Big Boss just walked up to me, "What are you doing?"

"I'm sitting on hold."
