I <3 the Roaming Gnome. But this is... odd.

Did you know that if you call Travelocity customer service, they actually have an option to verbally request the "gnome joke of the day"? Because I didn't, and I've worked in hotels for almost four years.

I had to skip it the other day because I had to get a credit card authorization. But I called back this morning because curiosity was killing me. It was a knock knock joke. A really bad one (are there any good ones?). And they actually said something like "Now that we've brightened your day a little, if you're done, you can just hang up..." Do people really call just for the gnome jokes?

Oddly, I do want to call back on my next work day, though, to see if they use the same one every day and hope no one notices, or if it's changed. *headdesk*

Is the gnome actually telling the jokes?

It does feature the voice of The Roaming Gnome from the commercials, yes.

That's awesome. And sad because now I want to call.
