cyrano: (I want to go home)
I've been quiet lately. Unemployed, stressing over lack of income and sudden emergence of problems that need money applied to them, and trying not to spend as much time in front of the computer. It looks like the DoS problems are still keeping LJ and FB from talking to each other. So yeah, not a whole lot to say that seems worth the saying. I'm still alive, and I have two words for all of you.

Fruit salsa.
cyrano: (Address Me)
A question for those whose work involves answering the phone "Thank you for calling Megacorp X, this is My Name." Do you get a pleasant sensation* when a stranger closes the call by saying "Thank you, My Name"? Or does it make you a little creeped out that a stranger knows your name?

*There's supposed to be a psychological theorum that hearing your own name is pleasant, barring context like your mother shouting it across the neighborhood. And then there's the other theorum that this means the person is thinking of you as a human being with a name rather than an automated information machine on the other side of the phone.

You may consider this IFIAYAQD!
