DAUGHTER: I have to use the bathroom.

Robot Operator: We apologize for your wait, but we refuse to pay our Operators a fair wage, so never enough people are working here. Instead of accepting the blame, and fixing this, we tell the few people who work for us, they are simply not trying hard enough. Your wait will be 30 minutes to talk to an Operator who is about to cry, because everyone has yelled at them for having to wait so long. REMEMBER YOUR CALL IS VERY IMPORTANT TO US, but not in any demonstrable way.
