Call received from (210) 775-5865... "Jared" vs. Automated Ashley (AA)
Jared: "Hello."
AA: "Hi! My name is Ashley. Is this Jared?"
Jared: "Yes it is. I'm sorry, who is this?"
AA: "Hi! My name is Ashley."
Jared: "Hi Ashley. What can I do for you?"
AA: "Hi!"
Jared: "Ashley, are you okay? It sounds like your batteries are dying."
AA: <long silence>
Jared: "Ashley, can you give me a second, I think we have a bad connection. The reception at my place of business is bad. Okay, so you were saying?"
AA: "Hi! My name is Ash..."
Jared: "Much better, now I can hear you again."
AA: "I'm with E-Degree and you recently requested some information on continuing your education."
Jared: "Yup, because a PhD in Astrophysics just isn't keeping me challenged."
AA: <long silence with the occasional click>
Jared: "Ashley, are you okay? It sounds like you've fallen and can't get up. Should I call LifeAlert?"

For the record, I don't have a PhD in astrophysics. It's depressing that in 2014 we still don't have automated calling services capable of taking a joke without shutting down.
