5 Things a Live Virtual Receptionist Leaves You to Deal With on Your Own
You keep asking our live virtual assistants for help with these five things, and enough is enough. Here’s our list of the top five things a live virtual receptionist can’t help you with.1. Your Maladjusted Air Fryer
You didn’t even want an air fryer, and your air fryer can sense that. You claimed it at a bereavement sale when helping an overtired younger sister clear out her sibling’s apartment, and now you think it might be haunted. Even on the highest setting, it will never crisp your Tyson Any’tizers® Honey BBQ Flavored Boneless Chicken Bites. A virtual receptionist can’t right that wrong.2. Your Obstreperous Air Conditioner
Your air conditioner knows you’ve got clinically sweaty pits– that you’re soaking your cotton t-shirt even after applying Duradry 3-Step Protection Deodorant, Prescription Strength– and still, after you turn it on, it harrumphs for 15 minutes.
Your place has adequate ventilation, but by the time your AC farts out a whiff of cool air, you’ve changed your shirt. What’s a live virtual receptionist going to give, fashion advice?
3. Your Cantankerous Compactor
Did you hire to play in your kitchenette the famous Mariachi Ortega Band, a group of 3 to 9 dedicated musicians who perform in the San Francisco bay area and feature two trumpets, four violins, one guitar, one guitaron, and one vihuela? Or wait, no – that’s just the sound of your compactor.
Unless you want to serenade your virtual receptionist, don’t even bother.
4. Your Anachronistic Microwave
In its extended discussion on The Experience and Perception of Time, the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy explains that “Perhaps most famously, [Gottfried Wilhelm] Leibniz argued that the existence of absolute space or time would lead to violations of the principle of sufficient reason and violations of the identity of indiscernibles.” But even Leibniz would agree absolutely that your microwave’s clock is wayyyyy messed up.
It says 2:04 AM when it’s really 4:37 PM and you don’t know how it got there or how to change it. Don’t get your live virtual receptionist involved or they won’t shut up about McTaggart.
