Okay. I’m confused. All of Y’all are acting like he did it on purpose, but Ive read it over and over and I don’t know if the joke is he forgot or he did it deliberately.
That happened to me when I was holding for a pharmacy, though it was like fifteen minutes rather than 1 1/2 hours. There was no indication on the phone that anything was different. Forgot whether it was silent or playing their “music” or giving wall-to-wall commercial announcements, but I did finally hang up and call back. They were annoyed with me for suggesting that there was something wrong.

He probably’s been talking to his secret girlfriend.

The dial tone should have been a clue.

It is no joke and can happen to you if you live to a ripe old age. I hang up and (redial?) after 5 to 10 Min.

If he is anything like my husband, he did it on purpose. But I would have picked up the phone to complain or hung up and dialed again to complain.

I think the first clue he wasn’t on hold was he wasn’t listening to the muzak version of the piña colada song. Muzak MacArthurs Park is also good.
