It’s a restless life. I don’t ever really sleep; I’m constantly on call, if you’ll pardon the pun. The most rest I get is, maybe, eight hours, if I’m lucky, to just hang out on the dresser and recharge my batteries. But even that gets interrupted every two hours when I have to check for incoming emails.
Don’t get me wrong, I love what I do; I just feel I could be, I dunno, a little more appreciated. But I know as well as any other cell phone that I’ll probably just be tossed away in two years and replaced by the newer, faster, and sexier models. I guess that’s why I don’t mind my job so much; it’s a two year contract and then I get to rest forever in that great landfill in the sky.
While I’m still here, however, I feel obliged to give my best. Occasionally, I’ll hold my ground on an issue, which will force someone to reboot me, and Lord knows there’s nothing better than a fresh start.
Yeah, I field a lot of calls, I mean, I don’t wanna brag, but I can field a lot of calls. Sometimes I can take multiple calls simultaneously. I might be a badass by my grandparent’s, “The Landline” standards, but I think it’s pretty standard anymore.

"Lord knows there's nothing better than a fresh start.." love it.
