I work in a pharmacy and I often have to call other pharmacies and doctors offices so I know the struggle well. Rite Aid has actual music play so that’s not so bad. The worst is when I have to call our help desk and the hold music is the same as the radio that’s playing in the store but it’s off by a couple beats. 

That hold music that makes fun of being hold music, but by doing so it just becomes increasingly unbearable. 

It is the god damn worst. But I experienced something for the first time the other day, I got to choose what style of music I got. And I appreciated that.

Maybe make up a lil song to the music. Something cute and fun while you wait. 

I also hate how they periodically come in and tell you you're still on hold. You hear the line click, think it might actually be a real person, and then... nope. I already know I'm on hold — why do you need to rub it in?

I've been sitting on hold for over FOURTY minutes... hearing the same loop of terrible airline hold music...and I want to die. I have no sanity left. My phone is on my desk with the volume turned down as low as I dare...but still it's driving me nuts. Why is hold music the literal worst? Is it just because you're annoying that you're waiting to being with, so no matter what it'll be annoying?? Send moods. 

Why is hold music the worst?
