Same. Same in call centres too. Did some fun stuff like getting colleagues to say a word you have to work into the next call like “spoon” which is easy with a little “good afterspoon”. Or doing dumb shit like pretending we had Tourette’s.
Damn that's hilarious- I wish I knew about that game when I worked at a call center!
My favorite when I worked drive thru was pretending to be a robot/prerecorded message. I'd put on my announcer voice- like Stamets level shit- to greet them, and then say "to place an order, press 1" but there was no keypad, so they would just say "uh...one?" And then I'd be like "para español, marque dos"
I... Wat
Am I mistaken in assuming that most of Lemmy's long-standing users have heard at least one of your voice recordings?
Probably. I've only posted it a couple times and deep in comment chains usually lol
Ah- well, it's what I know you for lol
