I apologise in advance for going on a long angst filled rant here but I need to get this off my chest.
I speak very clear English in a Sheffield accent, yet when I'm on the phone, nobody can understand me, particularly call centres, both UK and Indian ones.
It's rather annoying and I'm wondering who's to blame? Do I need speech therapy? Or are they just ignorant of people who do not speak the Queen's English, ie Posh people?
Has anyone else who is Aspie in England had this problem? Where you speak in a local dialect on the phone but people can't understand you?
