The operator sounded uninterested I felt the operator rushed me. Standard Expectations Only one local number needs to be dialed I never get a busy signal I get a human being to answer my call quickly and he or she is pleasant and responsive to my problem A timely resolution to my problem is offered The operator is able to explain to me what I can expect to take place Experience Enhancers The operator was sincerely concerned and apologetic about my problem He asked intelligent questions that allowed me to feel confident in his abilities The operator offered various times to have work done, to suit my schedule Ways to avoid future problems were suggested
