- 0:01Speaker 1: phone tap, we call a woman who put in a
- 0:03Speaker 1: request to add her mom's cell phone onto her wireless plan.
- 0:07Speaker 2: We my husband's entire family, his sister, then Schnauzer that
- 0:15Speaker 2: has a cell phone on.
- 0:16Speaker 1: Okay, personal trauma aside. That should be an easy request, right, Yeah,
- 0:22Speaker 1: that's all she wants. But nowadays cell phone carriers have
- 0:25Speaker 1: a special way of making even the most simple tasks
- 0:28Speaker 1: extremely complicated. And that's what we aim to do. Just
- 0:33Speaker 1: make up a bunch of names and features that don't
- 0:35Speaker 1: really exist, along with our favorite hold music chicken Banana. Yeah,
- 0:40Speaker 1: mix that in. You've got a recipe for a top
- 0:42Speaker 1: quality phone Tapa. It's coming up right now, Broking Jeffreys
- 0:47Speaker 1: phone taps on the twenties. Hello, Hi, this is Rusty
- 0:53Speaker 1: calling from wireless. Is this Marissa? Yes, it is hi Marissa.
- 0:59Speaker 1: I'm reaching out because our records show that you've requested
- 1:01Speaker 1: to add another person to your account. Yeah.
- 1:05Speaker 2: I want to start like a new plan that has
- 1:07Speaker 2: me and my mom on it.
- 1:08Speaker 1: Got it? Okay, I can handle that for you right
- 1:10Speaker 1: now over the phone, No problem.
- 1:12Speaker 2: Great.
- 1:13Speaker 1: So, since you're looking to add a second line, you
- 1:16Speaker 1: will need to upgrade to one of our family packages.
- 1:20Speaker 2: Okay, I just want to make sure it's the simplest,
- 1:22Speaker 2: most basic one just for her and me.
- 1:24Speaker 1: I can do that. So our basic package is the
- 1:26Speaker 1: Family Together Plan. So if you do go with that,
- 1:30Speaker 1: you're going to end up paying double for two basic packages.
- 1:32Speaker 1: Is that what you want?
- 1:33Speaker 2: Why would I pay the double? I just want one
- 1:36Speaker 2: basic package for me and my mom exactly.
- 1:38Speaker 1: That's what I figured. So I think the perfect solution
- 1:40Speaker 1: for you would be the Family Harmony package that gives
- 1:43Speaker 1: you one thousand anytime minutes unlimited, night or day, night
- 1:48Speaker 1: being even days and days being odd days.
- 1:51Speaker 2: I just want the most basic I said.
- 1:53Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I'm telling you.
- 1:55Speaker 2: What with the Harmony and the odd and even I
- 1:58Speaker 2: don't need any of that. That doesn't make sense.
- 2:00Speaker 1: No, I know it sounds it can sound confusing. There's
- 2:03Speaker 1: actually a chart of our family plan offerings here in
- 2:05Speaker 1: the store. It makes it really easy to understand. I
- 2:08Speaker 1: wish you could see it.
- 2:09Speaker 2: I don't want to deal with charts either.
- 2:11Speaker 1: I guess well, I can have you sketch it out
- 2:12Speaker 1: if you're good at taking instructions. It'll make it really
- 2:14Speaker 1: clear what, I just make it easy.
- 2:17Speaker 2: All I want is a basic plan for my mom
- 2:20Speaker 2: and me. Just whatever, the simplest, cheapest one, got it.

- 2:58Speaker 2: have texting.
- 3:00Speaker 1: That's correct.
- 3:01Speaker 2: Why don't you just call it the no texting plan?
- 3:03Speaker 2: Then that would make it easier to understand.
- 3:05Speaker 1: Actually, I'm going to make a note of that. My
- 3:07Speaker 1: supervisor might give me a bonus if I suggest that
- 3:10Speaker 1: to him.
- 3:10Speaker 2: Oh my god, I don't care. Cand you just sign
