I read that there are now classes to teach the call center workers accents. Although its definitely the south when your called "honey" and "sugar" lol.

I try to be polite when I'm venting. I always start with "I know its not your fault but..." then I start ranting. And I end it with "sorry to take my frustration out on you."
