The History of Being on Hold

De: Dan Lewis

Narrado por: Mark Schectman

Here's a simple experiment you can try at home – and, probably will in the near future, whether you'd like to or not. Call a customer support hotline, try to talk to a real human and, well, you don't have to do much else. In many cases, you'll be put on hold, and you'll get to experience hold music. It's almost a given that this will happen, as hold music has become a very common feature of such phone systems. But it has a very uncommon history.©2016 Dan Lewis (P)2016 Audible, Inc.
