She is almost perfect.
That's great. Is she working three jobs too?
No, but she sounds exactly like you.
Well, I'm sure she doesn't actually sound like me, Joe.
No, she does.
She responds to callers with something that you would say.
Obviously it's more predictable.
Only as predictable as you are.
- Excuse me. - I said only as predictable as you are.
- We're all predictable. - Well, I'm not.
Actually, you are. The more I've been listening to your voice,
I recognize that you use sixteen different word clusters
in seventy percent of your verbal communication.
I can show you a breakdown of it.
No, that's fine, I'm sure you're right.
I am, I have the data.
How is this legal?
Have you ever heard, "this call may be monitored or recorded"?
That's us.
I need a list of in-network podiatrists.
I'm with you but I didn't catch that.
That's you.
It's something.
Would you like to choose a new, primary care physician?
I don't want to change doctors. Why do I have to change?
I know it's complex, but we will deal with it together.
Deal with it together. You say that all the time.
Okay, no.
Congratulations Joe.
Successfully reduced my personality to a couple of catch phrases.
Don't you see how lifelike it is?
I mean, people are even calling in to corporate to speak to you, to her.
Maybe it's groundbreaking for an answering machine.
But, it's not me, it's... it's nothing like me.
Are you mad about something else?
No, I'm just tired.
The great news is, I don't have to be anymore, because you did it.
So, I'm gonna quit the hotel. I want you to take the app off my phone.
We need to do updates for months.
So, this isn't the end of the process.
I don't want you listening anymore.
In order to be of the most value to our customers,
we're gonna need to continue to do improvements.
Joe, I will work with Meghan then.
Joe, I am glad that the ivr came out so well, okay?
But I would like to go back to being your wife,
and not your science experiment.
But I enjoy listening to you.
I don't think you've been listening to me at all.
Take the app off my phone, Joe. Now.
It's off.
Thank you. I'm going to bed.
