Trust me on this. It's a blog from some smartarse taxi despatcher in Arlington (yeah, not Arligton Massachusetts, the other one) who posts transcriptions of phone calls from customers. It lives here.

Be warned, my wife has been listening to me howling and clutching me ribs and falling out of my chair for about an hour now, so you might want to either share the screen with your partner or do this alone.

Oooh! I like him! Of course, I'd like anyone who tortures stupid people... ;D

Ha, this is totally great! :-)

(I have been reading for the last half hour or so instead of having fun with technical informatics..... ;-))

Dammit, Pete! I've spent over half an hour on this so far!

Oh, beauty!

I wonder if this customer was on his way to a BookCrossing convention:

ME: Yes, but is it big and heavy? What's in it?
GUY: Books.

Very funny. I wish I hadn't started reading quite so late on a Sunday night ! Thanks for the link.

Being right at home in Arlington Virginia, DC and the entire Metro Area, I just about died laughing. I hit the Rottweiler in the diaper and laughed so hard people came looking to see what I was up to.

Very funny! I'm sure it makes you glad you only have to drive, rather than answer the phones...
