customer service part II (there is hope)

Actual chat transcript ...

Hello, my name is Jeff. How may I help you today?

You: I'd like to bet my account balance on the iowa - Pitt game
You: just tried and was told the max is 1100
You: lameness

Jeff: I will be more than happy to take your over the limit request, but first I need you to place the bet you want for the maximum allowed online and then provide me with the Bet ID number. Then, I will check if our Line Managers are willing to take the additional amount.

You: I already have made that bet .. yesterday

Jeff: What's the bet ID number though?

You: BET ID=254866755
You: want to bet my 805.34 balance on the game as well

Jeff: Ok, please hold on while I ask for approval on your over the limit request.

You: also - i have a silly question, kind of a test. if i needed an apple, really needed one .. would you send me one?
You: you see 'gabby' at pokerstars ignores such requests, pretending i didn't even ask

Jeff: I'm very sorry, but we are not taking over the limit action on this event at the moment.

You: hmm .. does that mean you won't before the game?

Jeff: Actually we're not taking over the limits for tomorrow's games at all.

You: oh .. and the apple?

Jeff: I totally don't get the sense of that question. I'm sorry. Can you explain yourself a little bit better?


You: it was actually "gabby" at sportsbook .. the question is just if i really need an apple, like i was starving - and you had an apple, would you send me one?
You: Im not starving btw so don't worry - it's a customer service question .. just say "you bet i would"
You: you can do it
You: it won't kill you or mean you owe me an apple or anything


Jeff: I'm not sure if I would because if I had an apple is because I'm planning to eat it when I get hungry. You know what I'm saying? I'll be starving myself and would like to have the apple back.

You: lol .. ok, that's actually a better response. you win, thanks and later

Jeff: You're welcome, have a good one.

I think Brian has developed a very clever "Apple Variation" of the Turing Test.

B: So... do you think the customer service workers are people? computers? cyborgs? people working for cyborgs? different people manning 100 computers at once? People who usually speak Hindi? I'm trying to wrap my head around this whole concept.

J, I just want an apple. Doesn't matter if I get this apple from a real person, computer, or cyborg. an apple, it is, what i want
