Funny you say that...which reminded me...when I would call in - it sounded like those tell-a-markers - the noise in the background of people talking - phones ringing — etc...I thought to myself, “Did I call the right number?” “Or are these the same people calling me about switching credit cards or trying to sell me some stupid eco-cleaner?”
I suspicious at first - but I got my check...but there are some that probably gave up - which is what Obama was hoping for...he likes to give “Big Boy” speeches - but there’s always an underhanded motivation afterwards...
Back when I was in business with my Family Farm, we had to call the IRS for something, and the background noise sounded like one of those mass-call centers for a robo-call product. It was deafening, and the idiot on the phone had to switch us over to other depts/agents to get it handled; she was totally incompetent. It was a 2hr waste of time. I used to let our corp CPA handle it after that.
