A Call to remember

We come across a lot of situations in our day-to-day life, but not all are worth a mention. I think this particular incident that happened to me last afternoon is worth a blog. You will understand why ...

Its about 2 in the afternoon, I am done with lunch and off for a walk with my friend. My phone rings... On the other side of the call is a credit card employee.

Credit Card Employee (CCE) : Hello, Madam, Good afternoon.
Me: Hello, yes.
CCE: I am calling from (Beep) bank and we are having good credit card offers for (Beep) employees. Are you full time employee of (Beep) company?
Me: Yes I am.

I was in the middle of very interesting conversation with my friend before the call arrived and she is about to start off the credit card details. I wanted to apply for card but at point of time I was in no mood to listen to all the details that she was going to give. so I said.

Me: Call you please call me after an hour or so. I am in the middle of something. Yes, I am very interested in buying a credit card and I would love to buy one.

CCE: Sure ma'am. I will call you in 1 hour. That's great that you wanted to take our bank credit card. You just have to give us photo and your payslip. Our bank employee will be in your office in 1 hour, immediately after we discuss the kind of card you want to apply!

Me: Ok, sure. Thanks.

CCE: Thank you ma'am, I will call you in 1 hour

At 3 PM. The phone again rings..

CCE: Hello Ma'am, this from the credit card company. I had called you an hour back. Remember?

Me: Yes of-course. Could you give me the details please?

CCE: Before that ma'am, could you please tell me how long have you been with (Beep) company?

Me: 3 years now

CCE: Are you a permanent Employee?

Me: Yes.

CCE: What's you package ma'am?

Me: (Beep)

Then there was 2 sec silence on the other hand....

CCE: Err.. Ma'am.. There is no credit card that suit your needs. Thank you for dealing with (Beep) bank. Thank you for you time. Have a nice day. Bye.

Me: @@!!@!@?!@!@????

And the phone goes blank....

God.! I could not stop laughing after recalling the conversation again and again. For all those who are cribbing about their pay, have a hearty laugh reading this conversation. You know you are not even worth a Credit Card!

Haha. Signing Off.. :)
