The Unfriendly Dept

Many companies have an internal transfer line that contains people who are unfriendly, and want to avoid helping you at all costs. I suppose this is because we are required to be nice to the guests, but we're allowed to let our hair down when talking to employees in other departments. Sometimes they are not just unfriendly, they hang up on you the moment they see your number on the dialer, or hear your voice.

Examples:


 * IRDG
 * In the gift registry department, there is an Indian man who always gets annoyed when I call in, and always tries to either keep me on the line ("please give me all the account details") until the customer hangs up, or tries to get me to do the job myself ("I'm sorry, cannot you do that yourself?"), or says he cannot do anything.
 * The supervisor escalation line, where the manager sounds bored and slightly annoyed whenever you call them.
 * A Chicken_Clerk that is alarmed at you calling them and identifying yourself, and they tell you to hold while they pretend to look for the outfit and hang up the phone.
