Funny we were just talking about this today at work ...as my office mates got to listen to the hold music from my phone on speakerphone so could at least attempt to do something while waiting...
• who writes that “on hold” music?... Musakwriters aka elevatormusicwriters
• and who is/are the artists that play it?....Muskamusicians
• do you love that music?... well it is an art form of sorts I suppose...
• was recorded to make you hang up in disgust? ...or do they play your favorite tune? Usually a slight irritant...so at least you still hear it as you step away from the phone to do something else...
• “we’re glad you called”. are they really glad?... probably not....hoping you give up...
• do they really value your call like they say / is your call really important to them?... ditto
...
OK, now hold the mayo, I wanna hold your hand, hold the pickles,
what do you hold dear? Just some more things to consider....
are you waiting with bated breath? ... just hoping for a live human...
• Whats the longest you have ever been on hold? 2 hours...
• Have you ever been disconnected immediately at the moment they finally picked up after an excessively long hold?...oh more times than I want to count....
Wont tag as know the day is almost over....
