Call Centres
Dreadful pits of hellish torture for both customer and the people who work there. Press 1 to leave an amusing story, press 2 for us to send you a lunchbox full of turds.

A friend and I
Invented a game where we brainstorm a long list of 1-800 numbers that sound like they could potentially be sex lines, eg. 1-800 HAIR SEX; 1-800 ASS ROMP; 1-800 HUGE TIT, etc.
Ninety-five percent of the time these do indeed lead to sex lines (I have a theory that the phone sex companies may purchase a large number of 1-800 numbers that contain words like 'sex', regardless of the remaining digits). However, the remainder of the time one gets connected to a call center of some sort with no dirty phone love connections, and this is where the challenge begins.
Once an actual human voice comes in on the other end, the player must offer this poor cubicle-bound call-center laborer something to the effect of "Hi how are you? I was trying to reach 1-800-NO SCROTE (or whatever). Have I called the right number?" And continue to negotiate as long as possible.
Anyway, in case you decide to try this game I will give you a hint. As I recall, 1-800 POPE SEX is a member of the magic 5% that reaches a call center.
