Also, it's absolutely insane how active my muses have gotten over the last couple of days.

Now, if you've known me at all in the past couple of years, you'll know that when I get sick or tired or bored or just generally not completely focused, sometimes what I say isn't actually me, but a muse.

([livejournal.com profile] nonewwitticisms, [livejournal.com profile] draca, [livejournal.com profile] evanjeline, and maybe [livejournal.com profile] scheherezhad can probably all attest to this. And [livejournal.com profile] nonewwitticisms has confirmed that muses actually change the way I type.)

Case in point:

I was discussing with Customer A the options we had regarding reducing his APR on his credit card. I'm a retention agent, so I have the ability to change things like that if our credit department has reviewed the account and decided that we don't mind giving them a lower APR.

So tonight I was mind-boggingly bored and going through that conversation on complete autopilot, and Customer A asks:

Why does it take so long for the credit department to make a decision?

Me: (not paying attention) Well, you see, it's a little difficult to explain. I don't know the exact criteria that our credit department uses, but it's basically--

Alex (using my mouth): Basically, the credit department is like a skittish prom date. You have to wait until they come around.

Me: *blinks and gapes at computer in horror, thinking Oh, my god, I did not just say that!

Customer A: I guess that makes sense.

Me: QA (Quality Assurance) is going to kick my ass if they listen to this call.




Also, I'm thinking of creating a filter for when I do start posting my original stuff, because of course I'm kind of protective over it. If you want to be in on that filter, just comment here.

Filter y/n? Y!

And yes, I can attest to the muses overtaking the Rachel on occasion. It is often v amusing.

Mine don't so much use my me to say things as they do demand that I inform whoever I'm with that they have something to say. They like getting credit for their wit and insights. [rolls eyes]

It isn't fair. I mean, I certainly write them enough, so why can't they just be happy with that?

I would like to be on your original fiction filter, if that's okay with you.

That's fine! It's the reason why I put this entry here, you know, because I'm not all that sure of who would want to read my original stuff. ^_^
