Customer: "Yes, I know."
Operator: [groan] "Okay,

Customer: "That's the number
I'm moving to in a couple of months."
Operator: [silent
scream and shaking of fists] "Could I have your current number,

Customer: [quotes another number]
Operator:
"Okay, what's the problem?"
Customer: "Ever since I entered
my new number into the dialer, I can't connect."
Operator:
"You entered your own number into the dialer?"
Customer:
"Yes." [not catching on]
Operator: "So you're dialing your

Customer: "Yes." [still not getting it]
Operator: "So you can't connect to our number because you're

Customer: "Yes. I've never had this problem before. Is there
