The Quest to Have to Communicate with People…Do We Have To?

As an introvert one of the things I hate the most and my husband even more so is having to get on the phone and talk to people. I don’t mean talking to our close friends or family. I mean having to call and talk to customer service representatives.

I don’t personally have anything against customer service representatives. Heaven knows they get the short end of a stick with having to deal with irate and rude customers.

Today I had to call the IRS to resolve an issue, I was on hold for almost an hour. When I finally got a hold of someone they were super nice and super helpful and I was able to get a resolution for what I needed today. I can’t believe I’m saying this but I had a great experience talking to the IRS today.

They get such a bad rep.

Spent the morning actually making a few phone calls and by the time I was done I was out of Forks. One of the things that will sap your energy quickly especially if you are an introvert is having to talk to people. Though my day was productive I’m hoping I don’t have to make any more phone calls for a while
