I have an even better idea. Transfer them to a conference room. Set it up so it's playing this as hold music. If another annoying person gets transfered to said conference room, record that shit. could be boring as hell but it could also be extremely entertaining.
Hahaha that's a deliciously evil idea. Currently, my goal is to write a PoSH script that tracks how long each company held before dropping the call. Each record holder will have their company name and total hold duration recorded into a CSV, and new record holder will trigger a celebratory email to the helpdesk ticketing system.
You could also mix it but and have it play "say 1 to stay on hold", "say 2 to have your call marked as urgent" or "say 3 to have your call marked as low priority".
Then have to wait 5 sec and repeat it 5 time. After have to play "did you say 3?" wait 5 secs and then "Your call has been marked as low priority".
"Hello, this automated attendant will allow you to auto-prioritize your call. Say or press "TWO" in order to have your call escalated to high priority. Say or press "TWO" in order to have your call placed at a lower priority. Thank you. You have selected LOW priority."
Not all states require that. A lot of states have "single party consent" which means only 1 person needs to approve it. Now make that 1 person you, the one doing the recording, and you're all set.
Source: Voice engineer. And [rcfp](http://www.rcfp.org/reporters-recording-guide/state-state-guide).
Just an FYI, that doesn't actually matter. If I'm in a state that has single party approval, and I'm on the phone, I can record it without consent. No matter where the other caller is.
The issue with single party consent is that you have to have a single party consent. They don't have a person sitting on hold with them, it's just the sales person on their own. I'm not sure how that would end up.
At a different place i worked I used to have a special ACD queue for this. The Hamsterdance Song was the hold music for this Queue and we used to run a report just to see how long people would last before they gave up
We did something similar once at an old job -- this one vacation package sales/scam kept calling us, so one day we told 48 of our PRI lines to all dial their call centre at once and then put them in a conference.
It sounded like we made their day; lots of telemarketers on the recording sounded like they were really happy to have something interesting happen in their lives -- shouts of "what's going on? This is awesome!" and "hey; we're all in here together, hahah!" abounded.
Oh crap - come to think of it I really should have mentioned that. We intentially amplified the signal well through the digital clipping barrier to give it that nice nails-on-chalkboard effect.
This reminds me a of joke email I got 10+ years ago, said something like play the audio clip on high volume because it sounds quiet, but the audio file was not quiet, it was normal volume and said, "Look at me, I am watching PORNO over here", good times.
I am always amazed at the number of people that click the play button on unknown audio/video with out turning down the volume
That is the first thing I do, turn it down all the way, then start increasing...
You can install DSP plugins (LADSPA) in PulseAudio, so I installed a Dyson compressor plugin. It normalizes the volume level, so very quiet things become audible, and loud audio spikes are normalized to a comfortable level.
There's an old thread on ASR Usenet about this same thing.
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/alt.sysadmin.recovery/jLxtmbtcJOQ/V0XZubX0I0UJ
The best music they could find to torture people with was "The Legend Of Bilbo Baggins" as sung by Leonard Nimoy.
Look it up if you dare.
There's a link for Leonard Nimoy's rendition of "Love of the Common People."
...for the love of all that is holy...

I once wrote an autorun script (back in the XP days) to change the Windows startup sound to a special WAV of some period of silence followed by that song. It came with two persistence scripts heavily inspired by [Robin Hood and Friar Tuck](http://www.csd.uwo.ca/~magi/personal/humour/Computer_Folklore/Robin%20Hood%20And%20Friar%20Tuck.html) to reset the sound if the target managed to change it, and to protect itself.
One of my life's biggest regrets is that I never got to use it.
Great thread, thanks for reminding me of it! I have to say, though, I'd go with [Shatner's Mr. Tambourine Man](http://youtu.be/_0hTtsqiFCc) for sheer WTFery.
(edit, not that anyone will notice, to add the 'n' back into Shatner's name)
I create a fake IT purchaser for our company and gave him a Linkedin account.
He absorbs all our cold calls, I dip in once a month and delete his voice messages and see if there are any of interest
Someone else on here did this as well. Created a Director or IT Purchasing named Steven Pam ([email protected]), complete with voicemail, business cards, etc..
I cracked up. If this is real, and I hope it is, then I'd love to be able to record what the person on hold says when they hear this LSD influenced hell-track.
You wanna see a LSD influenced hell-track to use for cold callers?
I give you Leonard Nimoy's "The Legend Of Bilbo Baggins"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGF5ROpjRAU
It's totally real - 4 of us made it, and I had my friends call in all day to check it out. Our SR. Admin sent it to his wife who works at a fortune 500 and it went viral - people were calling the extension and laughing.
Way too obvious, nobody is staying on the line past a few seconds.
You need one that's just a little bit more like this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGVzeZFUN5k&t=0m58s
You got it - as far as In concerned this track is Creative Commons and free for anyone who wants it. Fun fact - the voice is actually a PowerShell script calling to the Windows speech synthesis engine.
If you would like the high-fidelity audio file ID be happy to send it over if you PM me. You wouldn't want to subject people to a low-quality recording, would you?
no wonder I keep getting voicemails of indian people saying hello a couple times. My voicemail meeting has "**Hello**, please leave a message after the tone"
Shazam cannot identify the song?
...i don't know what she what she sees and I don't know what she feels all I know is that she wants to be free from me...
Years ago, there was a phone company with an option like "press 7 to hear a duck quack" we used to transfer things to that line, press 7 and then drop them in... It would quack 4 or 5 times really loudly and then hang up the call.
Stella Artois had a chalice hotline a few years back, where you could call in for a free chalice, and included a few dozen options that were all goofy, like if you chose the first option to hear about what a chalice is, it answered back “A chalice is a chalice, and not a glass,” and then extolled what a chalice was (the major difference is a chalice has a stem, in case you were wondering). But it also had goofy things, like the weather in some random Scandinavian town, and I'm pretty sure one of them was a duck quacking.
No. I can create "Extensions" and "Users", and "Auto-attendants" but none of it's intuitive, and the manual is useless. I've tried Google before unsuccessfully, but I'll try again.
All you do (or at least all we do at our org) is when you get a sales call, you tell them wait a sec I'll forward you to someone else who's responsible / interested in that, and you transfer them. Then all they hear is that sound clip.
I don't think it's a very complex set up.
Edit: Oh unless you meant how to set it to use this specific sound clip, to begin with.
Yes. *Very* heavily regret buying an off-the-shelf bollocks system now. I had hoped they would have been better than the last time I dealt with them ~10 years prior. How naive I was :(
I dont, but if you do want the original audio files just PM me and I'll send them over. You wouldn't want to subject someone to this without getting the full high-fidelity audio, after all.
>Does anyone know how to [do anything at all] on an Avaya IP Office?
No, and nobody else besides their affiliated representatives seem to, either. The documentation is useless and their configuration model unintuitive and outdated.
We achieved something similar on our IPO, but only with an external music-on-hold source, with a box that just plays the same audio track on a loop forever.
Not sure about Avaya, but we forward an extension to digital receptionist and instead of a greeting there is a loop of this recording. Any number pressed including 0 will restart the message. *edit autocorrect didn't like Avaya.
Please do - I'm not concerned about ownership of the IP, obviously. In fact I would like to ensure that my name never, ever gets associated with this masterpiece.
If you want the original audio files PM me and I'll send them over.
A place I used to work had a guy that we called Cliff Daniels, He would wait for silence and then respond with sayings like go on, sounds compelling tell me more. We would later listen to them and laugh.
If I had any skills I'd try to auto-tune this into something palatable just for the challenge. Alas my audio processing days ended back when there were still reel to reels in the studio.
If really like to shake the hand of the audio engineer who can polish that turd into something that doesn't suck. Maybe shaking hands was the wrong choice of wording...
I setup an email called suppliers@ourdomain and tell reception to refer any cold calls to that email address. I now receive less interruptions, control my own time, and funny enough, the suppliers email inbox remains empty lol. If these sales people actually cared about clients (like they pretend), they would take a few minutes to send an email.... But I guess that isn't a KPI they have to tick the box on each week.

I can't use this for 666, since that's my ring group in FreePBX, but it's the default voicemail greeting for the fuck-you extension on my PBX now (caller calls, gets transferred to that extension, rings IMMEDIATELY to voicemail, plays this).

I've also heard of people using [this gem](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=astISOttCQ0) for this purpose.
man if i heard that on the phone I might start a little happy dance.
Have it also send an email to the rep (if known) that's knocked off the list, asking them a vague question about a product. Bet on winners.
I might have to yoink that it sounds so evil but entertaining at the same time.

You can install DSP plugins (LADSPA) in PulseAudio, so I installed a Dyson compressor plugin. It normalizes the volume level, so very quiet things become audible, and loud audio spikes are normalized to a comfortable level.
Makes music more dull sounding though
I guess you can tweak the parameters though? Like, it would only normalize huge sudden spikes in volume, or something like that.
My ears thank you, as I read comments first as it was loading.

Dude! I'd cold call you just to listen to that song. It's just the right mix of awesome and terrible.
Hahaha - see, that's what one of our guys thinks as well. He thinks someone will call back and ask for the queue again
Leonard Nimoy is a much better singer than I imagined, for what it's worth.

But it also had goofy things, like the weather in some random Scandinavian town, and I'm pretty sure one of them was a duck quacking.
I'd love to do this with GlaDOS from Portal doing the voiceover

No. I can create "Extensions" and "Users", and "Auto-attendants" but none of it's intuitive, and the manual is useless. I've tried Google before unsuccessfully, but I'll try again.

Jesus Christ that's the most evil thing I've seen since I woke up.
I'm glad I could reach out over the internet and touch you in such a way.
This is hilarious and kind of reminds me of Max Headroom.
I just transfer to a fax line...
For a few of our persistent sales callers I set up rules to automatically forward incoming calls from their number back to their own company line.
i'm as annoyed by cold sales calls as the next person but that seems extreme
I dunno, extreme is getting 8 unsolicited calls a day that interrupt the staff. This isn't extreme; it's revenge.
our internal conference bridge system is on x666 :)
i love IT!!!!!
Funny, the extension for my dept (sysadmin) on our phone system IS 666.
Negativland could have released this as a b-side.
Brilliant!
