Your POV
You were going about business as usual in the office. Being stuck at a nine to five job wasn't that bad. Who am I kidding this fucking sucks, you said to yourself sadly. You stared at the blank computer screen and sighed. Your job really was just answering calls for people who were too stupid to understand how to use your companies product. You got a incoming call and you picked up the phone begrudgingly.
"Hello this is the help center what can I do for you today?" You asked dryly.
"Yea, uh I bought your phone and it's uh acting weird." The guy said.
"Can you explain by what you mean weird?" You asked.
His voice for whatever reasons seemed familiar to you. You just couldn't put your finger on it.
"Yeah see I was doing something yesterday and I wake up the next morning and the next thing you know it my phone isn't working right. Like it'll turn on and then glitch around." The guy explained.
"Have you tried restarting your phone?" You asked.
"Yeah I guess but it didn't work." The guy replied.
You tried harder to figure out where you heard that voice before. It was so close you just couldn't put a name to it. Suddenly there was a bunch of noise on the phone.
"Ah fuck." The guy said.
"Sir is everything ok?" You asked concerned.
"Yeah I'm fine I just fell down the stairs." The guy answered." Hey my phones working again!"
"What?" You asked confused.
"It's working just fine, I guess falling down the stairs made it work again." He said happily.
You furrowed your eyebrows.
"How have you been talking to me this whole time?" You asked.
"On my phone." The guy answered.
You put your hand on your forehead and sighed a little.
"Will that be all?" You asked tiredly.
"Yeah I guess every time my tech breaks I should just fall down the stairs." The guy replied happily.
"Please don't." You mumbled quietly.
You heard the guy laugh in the other end of the phone. Suddenly a name came to you.
"Wait are you Sid Wilson?" You asked excitedly.
"Ha yeah, are you a fan?" Sid asked.
"Yeah oh my god this is so cool." You gushed.
"Hehe thanks." Sid replied.
"I can't believe I got to talk to a member of Slipknot." You said happily." Even if it was for something super stupid."
"What do you mean stupid?" Sid asked.
"You're high Sid your phone was working from the start." You answered honestly.
"Oooohhhhhh that makes more sense d u h." Sid said." Welp thanks so much."
He hung up the phone and you grinned a little. The little interaction made your work day a little more interesting.

AN: hey oh my god I'm so sorry I've been dead. I've just been spending most of my break just relaxing so I can be ready for the shit show that is school. Sorry if this isn't great either I'm a little out of ideas. So as always if you wanna suggest something go right ahead! Stay radical!
