Syndicated at contentgoeshere also and should update there pretty soon.

I am indeed on a predictive dialer.

right now, actually.

and it's just as frustrating for me as it is for the customers I collect money from.

I was horrified by the "keep clicking or we move to the next call" feature. Who the fuck thought that up? Do you have that, too?

Perfect!
The only part you left out is how I sit there and plan ways to kill my bosses.
