I work phones and can confirm this is true.
Even if you say something so monumentally out of place that someone would need a lobotomy to forget, the story will be retold with "there was this one call--sweetest person you can think of, absolutely minor issue--" as the opening, as long as you use hello, please, thank you and goodbye at a moderately acceptable volume and don't threaten the operator personally.
Back when I worked for a travel company this would happen all the time. Trust me, we only remembered the people who yelled at us. A polite “Thanks, you too” didn’t even register.
#social anxiety#phone calls#faux pas#stories from work#there was this one time--sweetest guy just calling for a progress update--basic stuff#who taught me that there's only one urologist on ibiza#he found that out through combining xtc with injectable prescription strength male enhancement meds#“at this point emotion overcame me and I fainted” will stick with me forever#mostly because there were 3-4 instances before that in his story where that reaction would have been SO justified#but yeah#kindergarten levels polite will get you the world on the phone
