    Who wouldn’t depending on the length of being on hold.

    It could have been worse, he could have been cussing a blue streak.

    At least it’s pleasant enough to sing along to, most are really awful but you are forced to listen to know when the person gets back.

    You might as well try to enjoy the song since it’s forced on you.

    From Tom Lehrer’s “Irish Ballad”, final lines.

    “My tragic tale I won’t prolong, Sing rickety-tickety-tin. My tragic tale I won’t prolong, And if you do not enjoy my song, You’ve yourselves to blame if it’s too long, You should never have let me begin, begin, You should never have let me begin”

    What I always hate about being on hold is the messages that break into the song. The ‘Your call is important to us’ lines that break into the music. If you’re going to put me on hold for an hour, at least let me enjoy the music.

    What they should have is options to hear the type of music you prefer.

    I’ve done this when somthing from a good band comes up - somthing from the 80’s or 90’s or some oldies from the 50’s, 60’s or 70’s …

    The worst is when you wait through three songs of garbage and when a really good song starts they answer. You got all the bleeep and none of the joy.

    I like the “Slowskys” commercial- “No I don’t need any help! Put me back on hold! OHH YEAAH!”

    The artist in charge of coloring phones,(Talk about specialists), can’t seem to make up his/her mind this week. If you’re calling to get a problem fixed, the music played is usually the best part of the call.

    Jon’s song sounds terrible! While Jon’s phone puts on hold for few minutes, the music for the Regis and Kelly Live show pops off for a while and clicks and then, the sound like a drone goes on forever. (I couldn’t stand that stupid sound of a drone.) By the way, incidentally, (I learned that Regis Phillan(sp?) kept saying “incidentally” all the time) I notice the different colors of the phone that appears like lime green, orange, and now rust brown or something? It is so weird, isn’t it?
