Most of us will do anything we can to avoid contacting a customer support agent. You might click through every single page on a website ten times, searching for a solution before finally sighing, accepting defeat, and sending a message to that annoying bubble in the corner of the screen. "How can I help?" the cheery AI agent might ask with a smile.
But we all know that whether or not that bot or an actual human will be able to assist is 50/50. If you're tired of dealing with infuriating customer support agents, you're not alone. Bored Panda has compiled a list of some of the most hilarious and frustrating encounters people have had with these workers below. Enjoy scrolling through, and be sure to upvote the ones that you find painfully relatable!
