Because They’re All Like Julie Andrews
(I have a more pronounced British accent due to my upbringing.)
Me: “Good afternoon. How may I help you?”
American Customer: *gasps* “Omigod! You’re British! You’re all ‘British-y’! Like on TV! Oh, my God! Will you talk to my wife? She would love your voice!”
Me: “Uh… thank you. Sure. Where is she?”
(He takes out a phone, dialing.)
American Customer: “Honey, I found an English girl! She sounds really British and everything!” *hands me the phone*
Me: “I’m sorry, I’m really confused and I have no idea what to say. Do you have a customer service related query?”
Wife: *on phone, gasping* “Oh, wow! Honey, your voice is beautiful!”
Me: “Thank you?”
American Customer: “Do you sing, too?”
