K (189?–?) Soviet pioneer.
From Kazan, Tartarstan, USSR, K was diagnosed as a ‘transvestite’ in 1937.

Thank you for your call, we are experiencing higher than normal call volumes...
I don't think I've called a big company since like 2009 where they weren't experiencing "higher than normal call volumes." On the one hand, it makes sense that I'd be calling during their busy times I guess. But every time?
I'm surprised these days if it's even possible to talk to a human on the phone from a company lol. on the one hand people do just use those numbers to vent their anger at poor workers a lot. at the same time it is maddening just not having any avenue at all to contact or complain.
