What are the annoying/crappy/bad parts when it comes to interpreting?
Heres some for Relay:
Redialing more than twice.
Ringing more than 10 times.
Not waiting for the GA before you begin typing.
Sitting on hold for an hour. (we have to sit and watch the screen do NOTHING and listen to crappy hold music)
Placing more than two calls with the same operator.
Using relay to do things you can do online.
Using AIM (especially on sidekick) to access Relay.
When businesses hang up on Deaf people or refuse to take a Relay call.
Being given orders to 'speak to live rep' when there isn't an option on a automated menu.
When hearing people speak too fast to for you to type what they say and refuse to slow down.
When hearing people refer to a Deaf person using relay as 'him/her/them' (ex: Tell her I said hi)
Hearing peoples impatience with Relay
Deaf peoples slowness when it comes to business calls.
NIGERIAN RELAY FRAUD
HEARING PEOPLE PLAYING/ABUSING WITH RELAY.
Wow bet it sounds like I really hate my job now huh lol.
I love my job, I just hate the carpel tunnel... and Fraud.
