Your right to laugh a bit

“I tell you, don’t you dare to bully me. Hmph..”
“-_-
“Hmph, I call 03-7956 8144 then you know.”
*Thinking* “Ah..Befrienders?”
*nod nod*
Then, another conversation started inspired by Befriender’s call centre.
“Have you ever wondered how is it like when you call Befrienders, then this is what they said.”
“Ha? What you mean?”
“Thank you for calling Befrienders, please press 1 if you are depressed, press 2 if you need a friend to talk to, press 3 if you’re have suicidal thoughts.”
All of us laughed. This guy went on, *pretending press 2* Tutttt
“Sorry our ‘Friend’ is currently busy at the moment, please wait and we will attend to you shortly.”
*Waiting waiting…*
*2 mins passed*
“Sorry, all our ‘Friends’ are still busy now. If you wish to go back to the main menu, please press O. Otherwise please hold the line, our ‘Friends’ will be with you shortly.”
*On hold*
“Sorry, all our ‘Friends’ are still busy now. Please try calling again later. Remember, it’s your right to have a friend!”

We couldn’t help laughing after hearing the creative dialogue. We were also guessing are priorities given to suicidal thought people? Imagine it can be damn serious if nobody could attend to this poor little fella.
As a follow up on my post entry, I did try to call Be Frienders number (03- 7956 8144) to find out more, especially is it like how we joked? haha hope not. Unfortunately I could not get through the number even at 4pm in the afternoon. For almost an hour I tried calling in the car, I gave up after that.
I believe I can still be your listener even though I am not well-trained for any counselling session before.
