A few years back you could say "operator" or press zero to get transferred to an actual person. In my experience it only works about 1/3 of the time these days.
Sometimes the system would even escalate your call if you were swearing while you were on hold.
Swear. Loudly. Scream 'Fuck This Shit'.
It works and gets you a more immediate operator. May or may not be one with empathy, but ๐ค
Sure! I'm transferring your call now!
