Full Circle.

Tuesday, October 9th, 2007

The dust has settled from the Pregnant Agent incident. I called back and spoke to another assistant (evidently there is a lot of assisting going on in that office) to whom I couldn’t help but relay the Pregnant story.

By that time, she had already Googled us, and was on the website (so that’s what they’re doing when you’re on the phone with them…) and saw the previous blog post.

So it all came together, full circle.

To everyone in that office, Sweaty Robot sends a big Hello, and this disembodied Teddy Bear’s head.

I wanted to talk to an agent we know about setting up a private screening of Harris Malden at their office. Here’s a rough transcript of the phone call.

Eric: This is Eric Levy for Tracy please.
Assistant: Hold please.

A: Yes.
E: Is this Tracy?
A: (Aggravated) No, she’s having a baby.
E: Like right now?
A: YES.
E: Sooo, should I…I mean, I can call back.
A: Then call back.
E: Unless you’ve got time, I mean, she’s like literally having the baby now…?
A: (Pissy) Yes, what would you like?

I vaguely told her what I wanted, and then decided to call back later. What a weird phone call.
