Eric’s back from “Vacation”
Eric’s back! Yesterday Eric called in after his one month hiatus. Eric told Howard that part of the reason he had been gone was because of the “vacation” he took with his family. Howard told Eric that in order to be on vacation he had to have a job to take a vacation from first.
Eric said that the other reason he hadn’t been calling in as much was because of his deterorating health. According to Eric’s doctor, waiting on hold for long periods of time has caused Eric a great deal of stress and has affected his respitory system or something to that effect. This prompted Eric to leave a voice mail for Gary ahead of time, telling Gary that he was planning on calling in and asking not to be on hold for so long.
Here’s a crazy idea Eric, why not just hang up? Do you really need to wait on the phone all day?

It is amazing how quickly the little f**ker gets on my nerves. We should be so lucky to have the most stressful part of our life be sitting on hold from time to time. Even that is silly, though, because, obviously, it is NOT the sitting on hold that is stressful to the passive-aggressive, little pr*ck. It is the hours he keeps. It is not rocket science. When you have a “job” that requires you to get up extremely early in the morning, you go to bed very early the night before. Maybe Eric missed the memo but Howard rarely stays up past 9 pm so he can be fresh and rested for the show the next day. Eric needs to get it through his thick skull that he needs to do the same…. or he just needs to hang up the phone occasionally.

Howard played a GREAT phone message from the little prick today (Wed, August 19). Yesterday, Robin did a news story about a father who was turkey hunting and mistook his son for a turkey and shot him. In response and just in passing, Howard made a half-ass joke about Eric’s parents making the same mistake. I don’t think Eric actually heard the joke… or maybe he did and is just so clueless that he doesn’t get it… but he left a angry-ass message saying words to the effect that “MY PARENTS HAVE NEVER MISTAKEN ME FOR A TURKEY….” LMFAO.
No shit, you humorless, little bastard. They call that a “joke”. Comedians like Howard make their living by telling jokes, but, in all the many years Eric’s been listening to the show, he has yet to figure that out. Ass.
