I swear this company just said...I'm on the phone...

"Would you like to hold without waiting?"

Er, what?

Sure.

What does that even mean?

Maybe they have some cool type of "choose your own adventure" you can play (via a touch-tone phone) and it'll make being on hold an adventure!

If you'd like to hear a duck quack, press 7.

EDIT: The number no longer works. Bummer. I remember actually calling it back in 2000.

Hey Tom have you been e-mailed/told about your bad link for a free octagonal (?) tower in the freebies section of your website? I wasn't trying to get it, just took note of a thread on ENWorld about it.

Maybe it just means you don't have to wait before they put you on hold. Improving customer service step by step!

Or, err, something. Umm.

See, I never put people on hold when I answered the phone at work. I just put the phone down and walked away. Hold buttons are for wusses.
