If I got to work and my computer wasn't free (i.e. person on shift before me on a long call) I would walk over to the manager and they would often let me listen to the holding queue. The person on hold just heard music, but we could hear them. Some people would be singing, some cussing, some holding conversations with other people. VERY INTERESTING to listen to (and good to remember when you are on hold... you might be less alone than you think).

I'd absolutely rather key in a bunch of numbers on the key pad rather than speak to one of those things. I always have to repeat myself. They don't factor in a southern accent!!
