can you smile on the phone without sounding like you are about to murder me

You just received your credit card offer in the mail and you are all excited about how you are about to buy that give me that honey love wig. Do you know what I'm talking about? Sounds like a nice girl on the phone, then one word sounds a little less professional. Three seconds later, another word sounds a little like she came out of ghetto town, but it passes as a very professional speech pattern. Now, just when you think it is safe, three minutes later, she sounds like she is out of the ghetto chick fight after that girl got her weave snatched Compton. You know what I'm talking about. That lie they always tell at the start of the customer service call. Now, you are compelled to go to a mentor the youth meeting. Can you racists bosses learn to have more confidence in yourselves when you hire black women to work in your office? Do you always have to have your white women tickled so pink?
