when grown men cry

so i had a pretty normal call today, the guy had a bad modem and he said he’d swap it tomorrow and it was all good, he wasn’t mad or anything, it was a pretty good call. anyway, he hangs up the phone but doesn’t quite hang it up right so it’s still on the hook and i suddenly hear this high pitched whining sound. now remember the guy’s voice sounds like he’s around 40. then i hear this childlike tone come from him.

“i get no intewnet tonight! it’s bwoke aww night and i’m weawwy sad. no intewnet. aww. no intewnet.”

so he keeps going on like this and i’m trying not to bust out laughing. i know i should just hang up but this is too funny. i could hear his wife on the line sounding less than impressed with this childish display and eventually i think he noticed the phone was off the hook and hung it up. there was a good two minutes of the sooking and whining though. i gotta say that made my day.

  1. I don’t know if I should laugh at the guy or feel sorry for him. Maybe both is in order. :p
