This Explains A Lot
Companies that use “customer service centers” on the other side of the globe have a level of complexity that frustrates English speaking customers. Rumor has it that the reps are trained extensively in the English language before they start taking calls. Inside sources have revealed the final exam that that is given before they are put on the phones. Here is how the final exam goes:
Supervisor: Ok Jagibar, before you can start taking calls, you must pass the final exam. Make a sentence using the words Pink, Yellow and Green.
Jagibar: (thinks for a second and says) Oh, that is easy, the telephone goes green, green and I pink it up and say yellow, this jagibar, how may I help you?

Hello-I stopped by the other day. I was just wondered whatever happened to your brother. I know he went to La after he came back from Iraq. I was always impressed at how much he loved his kids.Then he disappeared. Just wondered how things worked out for him.
RYC: Thanks for telling me about John, I’m sorry he isn’t doing better. Is he at least seeing his daughters??? marilyn
Congratulations on the anniversary!!!! What a joy that night must have been for you and your lovely wife.
We used to tell jokes about the norweigens answering phones up north (the land of the Oley and Lena jokes). When olay says hello it really sounds like, “Yellow statue?” So not PC these days to share that with you…LOL Uff da!
HUGS!!!
Hope all are well. I continue to think about John and to pray for him.
