Not a Problem - not!

Shades of Borat.

Actually i have a very BIG problem with the language I'm assaulted with these days.

I phoned Barclays bank to make a simple transaction and got the usual runaround i now take for granted.

Finally i get some girl who does what I called in for.

"Thank you. Very efficient." One has to praise them to the skies for the most basic operation.

"Not a problem," she responds.

"I know that. I was thanking you for doing your job and I'd be worried if customer service at that basic level did indeed pose any sort of a problem."

Pause.

Not a problem, i was assured.
