☆ Witful Warmth# 134 ☆
☆ Satire ☆ The Bureaucratic Maze… ☆ Dr. Suresh Kumar Mishra ‘Uratript’ ☆
I am staring at a computer screen that has been buffering for twenty consecutive minutes, displaying a spinning blue wheel of pure, unadulterated torment. For the third time this week, my internet service provider has decided to disconnect my service right in the middle of a critical deadline, hiding behind automated chatbots named after cheerful fictional characters who offer zero actual assistance.
When you finally manage to breach their fortress of automated phone trees and speak to an actual human being, you are greeted by a voice dripping with patronizing corporate empathy, asking you to restart a router that you have already unplugged, smashed mentally, and threatened to throw out the window.
It is an insulting dance of incompetence where incompetence is rewarded with monthly subscription fees. Every single fiber of my being is burning with a blinding, white-hot rage at this digital purgatory, where automated loops hold sovereign authority over human sanity and productivity.
