Abilities and their Inabilities

So John’s an admitted gimp, right?

On his way to recovery and John the Gimp looks into work between little things this week and what happens when I call Abilities of Florida to see if they could assist me with finding a job?

I find out their phone number for TTY users has been disconnected.

OK, that’s good and fine. I can use Voice Carry Over and weird them out because of it. I mean, they’re serving the public, right? I’m a member of the public… So ring-a-ding-ding I give them a call and I get a recording that I need to type in an extension or wait for an operator. I wait and the operator comes on demanding an extension.

Puzzled, I tell them that I am not sure what extension I am looking for because I’m just trying to get information and find out how I can get assistance through this company.

After about 5 minutes of silence the operator responds — asking me again for an extension… :rolleyes

Fun stuff
