I just tried to make a long distance call to a travel agency (don’t ask me why I did that) and it went like this:
A = agent, D = me
A: XX (<- travel agency’s name)
D: 唔該我想問下關於年底去台北機票同酒店
A: 喂？
D: 喂？
A: 喂？
*click* from the other side.
The above was preceded by an “automated” answering system and a mandatory advertisement of their $6xxx New Zealand deal good until January 31st and they’ll give you a limited quantity New Zealand travel map as a gift.
I know Vancouver may not be the most modern of places, but I thought long distance telephony is not something new? I really do not know who to blame for this, frankly.
why long distance call to a travel agency?
I thought I asked you not to ask. :p
It’s because I want to book my trip from Hong Kong to Taiwan early (New Year’s Day is a long weekend). Speaking of which, are you really going to go back to Taiwan for the winter holidays?
hm…..my dad is not letting me go back ar, I would love to spend the new year in Taiwan tho….I have always wanted to…arghhhhhhhhhh >=D…….he thinks i’m troublesome thaz why…..
