The importance of your call

Continuing an irreverent dictionary of voicebot vocabulary:

yourcallisimportanttous, cl.

Obsequious attempt to make the caller feel better about a dud place in the cattle queue. Actually means the opposite. Often followed by pleasestayontheline and yourcallwillbehandledshortly, and repeated ad nauseum.

orig. (doublespeak) "Your call is important to us!"
