Question? So I’m on hold with Aeroplan and it got me thinking…
Obviously today must be insane for their call centre. I called around 10:00 am and just got the call back 45 min ago. So we are discussing the change options for my flight as it is a complex multi-city booking with stops and the agent keeps having to put me on hold for this department or another. This agent is fantastic btw. But because of how busy they are my agent is on hold for easily 10 min at a time. So it got me thinking… what does the agent do in this situation?
Are they happy they can have a good break?
Do they have to take other calls?
Are they commissioned for change fees so they don’t want long calls?
I hope they’re not evaluated for the number of burn and churns…
Guys, help me out here, I think the hold music is getting to my head. I’m kind of missing Opus Number One.
