Back when I was a BOFH, I would string these calls on all the time. Usually I could manage 30-40 minutes before the Indian would get tired of it and hang up. Occasionally I'd get one that would last for over an hour.
- pbhjpbhj 14y agoI've done this a few times at work - they are very convincing. This would definitely catch some of the MS Windows users I know. One time the Asian guy on the other end (who couldn't pronounce what he said was his name) accused me of wasting his time and said that they were going to invoice me! That was probably the funniest. After a couple of goes around it gets boring. Now I just go along for the first bit and then say I have to put the phone handset down to type and leave the phone on the side until it screeches at me that I've forgotten to put it 'on the hook'.
