Currently work in a Call Centre. Accurate. Very accurate. It hurts. The whole sketch. Some of the people who call in...they amaze me but at the same time I've become accustomed to how insufferable it can be. Empathy is number one, unfortunately I lack that in sufficient amounts and would much rather just come up with a reasonable way to solve an issue which doesn't always seem to be enough anyways.
@@thatoneguy1520I worked a call center for 4 years. This sketch is too true to life. And it seemed half my job was dealing with the half-assed job another employee did. Frankly in most cases I was frustrated on behalf of the caller for the crap they dealt with in dealing with our company.
@@mowermen1762 well I’m fairly sure she was pregnant with my youngest brother at the time and he’s in his early 20’s now. So yeah, at least 20 years ago - back when it was super new technology!!
I'd love to see an alternate universe where Alan actually took the manager position and the place runs really well with Rowan being unemployed. Then Alan wakes up
@@IsidoreWilliamAriyanto wrong. Rowan has always been the manager. The manager (Rowan) originally wore a red shirt but decided to switch to a black shirt because the red shirt made him look fat.
That last one with the borthday was... genuinely heartwrenching. What a fucking incredible job Byron did. Seriously. It actually brought me to tears. Fucking spectacular 🥰👌
Well, Hamish wasn't there to scam, Rowan was just obtusely blind. I'm surprised that for once, Hamish actually lucked out for a change as usually he's the one getting scammed by Rowan. So, that 50% discount for $900 wasn't really a discount, more like a store credit deduction for the multiple times he's severely overpaid PlayTech for previous purchases. It still hasn't balanced out yet in Hamish's favor by several grand.
It hurts me on personal level too. Only the Facebook "birthday card" for me to walk into my workplace with the exact same outcome. Least I got a burger though... poor delivery man
The real secret is - They knew it was his birthday ... And they bought play techs birthday forward 4 months just to troll him , the delivery wasnt even real , they just grabbed a usb stick and put an address on it and basically gifted it to a random person just to make him deliver it .
I think it's hilarious that you have haters. You guys are brilliant. Most of these comedy groups are lame, but VLDL is consistent with its great quality.
Everytime I watch "Bored", I imagine having to actually shop at a "VLDL" electronics store... I can't help but to feel Hamish's pain, he looks absolutely terrified everytime he has to make his purchase (and rightly so!!🤣)
He pulls off the Mindless NPC, He pulls off the jerk boss, the loving survivalist, and the dumb FPS characters so well is amazing! Acting 101 from VLDL! Learn itches from the kinds of it all all 4 of them maybe a plus 1 or 2 but the main 4 are just giggles all around!
I always love when Rowan says he’s gonna do something nice for them you can see Alan squint and immediately start thinking “oh shit what’s he got planned” 😂
I've done this job for many different companies, it's far too accurate. With time and dedication I have figured out the hack for the three rules (whilst still perfectly obeying them). Agree with the customer, tell them the company is garbage and that their rules system doesn't allow you to co-operate with them or provide a decent service. Explain that they should write a terrible review for the company and never shop there again. Did this on my last week in a callcentre, was the most rewarding week in a customer service job I've ever had. Not one single bad call for the whole week
my heart sank when he thought that was his birthday suprise! i love all these episodes guys! :) excited for you guys to make more! hopefully you will :)
Having worked in a call center i can confirm that they do NOT like to call themselves call center. EVER. Similar to how you never say "ZOMBIE" in a zombie movie but walking dead or runners...
well actually you could implement the zombie term pretty good through out the story with a bit of good writing. since yk, humans are not dumb and will figure out the similarities between these things and CoD zombie mode
@Cornelia well, thats still implementable. It would be hilarious and unrealistic if there was a zombie game with zombies that have completely random, the same weaknesses. You wouldn't believe a video game about that. That would be stupid to assume. Its just about the name because ofthe look
I love the "wellness room" its got a STAINless steel toilet and everything. Seriously though, PUBG supercuts is what got me hooked. The "Bots gotten significantly worse" episode is hilarious.
The 223 skit, was the teenager voiced by Adam? Still kinda hear Adam's lack of confidence in it! Also that probably was Allan's most courageous moment ever, god knows what vile shiznit a teenager's laptop can contain!😅
These guys have big early Rooster Teeth vibes and I am so happy that I found them. RT became a shit fest and so to finally find someone to fill the shoes has me absolutely ecstatic!
I can't imagine having to do that for a living. I always try to be nice to call center employees. Even if I have a problem with the company, it's not the poor call center employee's fault.
Used to work at call centre too in my youth. We got the term for customers like that: people who wants to eat our brains. Though there are bright moment sometimes when our floor manager interrupt us when we were asked to escalate when they identified the caller are customers are blacklisted by the company as cheats or scammers. Fun to see how the upper management reverse the treatment upon them and sometimes seeing our floor manager say the call is over and slam the phone...you are allowed to be rude to confirmed criminals.
I'm so glad I'd put my tea down when Ellie said "190". I knew she'd throw out random numbers for Rowan, but I wasn't expecting it to be that high. I seriously love all these videos so much. I found y'all through the Souls Logic vids and I've been binge-watching since.
Not gonna lie the vibes when Adam and Alan were playing rubbish bin basketball with Forget It (alex ansaldi) playing was some of the most wholesome, just coworkers having fun moment I've seen in the whole Bored series! Of course Rowan had to muck it up...
A trick for ep. 221: put them on hold until either they hang up, or are ready to listen. We once had a customer that wouldn't listen to my manager, so we put her on hold, and she waited there for *20 MINUTES* until my manager had me pick up and pretend to be her manager. Then she finally listened. 🤣
The first one yeah- I worked different customer services jobs for 7 years and that was so spot on, manager doesnt care and wont give advice, you cant hang up, anything wrong is your fault, anything right is rarely thanks to you but generally more because you have 'such a great manager'.
@TobisaruJC no no they are right, at 189.50 shes making 379k a year. That is gonna raise some eyebrows at corporate a lot quicker than if she was making like 100k
Byron actually needs to be in movies. His acting is amazing.
It hurts to watch him get his own hopes up. He's way too good.
they all are

Rowan’s acting is so good that he’s made me genuinely hate his character
My boss is not to far off from his character.
hating him is the perfect praise for his acting.
Don’t you know his a model
Much like the actor who played Goffrey in Game of Thrones, he elicits very genuine feelings of hatred from me. What an amazing actor!
Rowan is such a good actor!
I love that Rowan is okay with selling a 900 dollar USB stick
Quite cheap compared to plastic bags
@@jarppe123 Those red bags are special editions. So hard to find nowadays. 😬

Alan would've been shit canned fast. This series is close to a documentary on how retail operates
Don't forget that power corrupts! Alan may just become the new Rowan.
Let me circle back to the White Shirt trilogy.
I guess he did it already...
He's the first manager, with Rowan as his employee.
@@IsidoreWilliamAriyanto wrong. Rowan has always been the manager. The manager (Rowan) originally wore a red shirt but decided to switch to a black shirt because the red shirt made him look fat.
Rowan Is the definition of a modern day caveman in the most beautiful way
@here we go again we need spoiler so we don,t need to click that :)
Don’t you know his a model
Im dead, like 24:20 he legit punished Allie with a raise of probably around 170 dollars LMFAO
I love his character. Not his fault his employees are so gullible.
love it when hamish gets his usb stick
And at 50% off!
Im so happy to see hamish win for once
Open box only usb in box
😂😂😂
😂😂😂
That last one with the borthday was... genuinely heartwrenching.
What a fucking incredible job Byron did. Seriously. It actually brought me to tears.
Fucking spectacular 🥰👌
5:34 Geez, I never expected Hamish to be a more effective scammer than Ben!

So, that 50% discount for $900 wasn't really a discount, more like a store credit deduction for the multiple times he's severely overpaid PlayTech for previous purchases.

@@SpiritHawk7 what do you mean Hamish lucked out? He was lucky, duh!
Well his bame is Hamish, dont know why but in my mind that sounds more lile thievery! Shame! XD
Naaah I don't buy it😂 Hamish definetely went home to find a usb stick in the box
I cant wait for VLDL' first full 120 minutes cinema movie. Not to put any pressure on you guys ...

Rowan doesn’t teleport, he is just sleeping on the floor and then wakes up
Noooooo silly he's checking the stock and inspecting the formation of dirt underneath shelves.

is your name alan?
not much more than that prairie hamster video/meme

I thought it was Allie?
@@zvolchen117 he said Ellie plus he was emailing about her before she entered and typed her name as Ellie
@@zvolchen117 nah the new Zealand accent just makes it sound similar to Allie
@@spagettech do Ellie and Allie not sound the same in other accents? or is that the joke?
Depends on what their worth is in shares. Hell she's making almost 31k a month now.
30 min are the max. I can watch without jumping into the next airplane and punching rowan.
That shows again how great his acting is.
You want to punch him so much but you can't? :D
@@1kvolt1978
because it's illegal?
@@kylespencer7756 Probably. But it actually was kind of citate of Rowan himself.

These guys deserve their own Netflix series!! It’s literally all I ever have on my tvs anymore lol
Of course, paying for what we have for free now 🤔

Adam is like.. my whole mood - I feel him deeply, such a relatable character
You know an actor is great when their character actually makes you *ANGRY*! Well done Rowan. Well done.😆😁😄
21:17 Alan holding the laugh in 😂
I always love when Rowan says he’s gonna do something nice for them you can see Alan squint and immediately start thinking “oh shit what’s he got planned” 😂
I forgot about the call centre skit... This is pretty spot on..
Byron is actually OUTSTANDING, the last clip shows how talented that dude is.
Love how Rowan is an idiot with numbers but when it comes to people trying to slack off he is a master detective
I never realized until now that Adam has a massive glasses prescription going on, as someone who is also blind, I can relate.
two words customer service
When Hamish wins the Vive, I vibe
28:45 Rowan is evil…. AND I LOVE IT 🤣🤣🤣
21:40.. Rowan shitting himself was just a beautiful punchline to the whole sketch.. 😂😂🤣🤣
Man Rowan is a fucking crazy actor 😂 people say they hate him cause that’s his character but I love it
the customer support episode really hit me deep , had the exact same thing going at my old job.
I've done this job for many different companies, it's far too accurate. With time and dedication I have figured out the hack for the three rules (whilst still perfectly obeying them).
Agree with the customer, tell them the company is garbage and that their rules system doesn't allow you to co-operate with them or provide a decent service. Explain that they should write a terrible review for the company and never shop there again.
Did this on my last week in a callcentre, was the most rewarding week in a customer service job I've ever had. Not one single bad call for the whole week
It gave me PTSD from my old call center job.
I fell asleep one night with TH-cam on, woke up at 3am and this was randomly on. Never saw it. I love watching this now
my heart sank when he thought that was his birthday suprise! i love all these episodes guys! :) excited for you guys to make more! hopefully you will :)
Watched them all already but definitely will watch one more time. Love Bored series, they are genius. Hope they will come more often.
Ellie is the reason Adam and Alan keep getting pay cuts. 189.50 an hour. Damn.
I always watch VLDL vids as they come out, but I always prefer them as supercuts. They feel like real TV shows.
nice to see Hamish catch an actual deal for once
Poor Allen. He does all the work and makes all the sense but still gets all the pay cuts. Rowan must be motivating him to always do his best.
11:43 _Rowans response time is faster than any cop, paramedic or Fire response on the planet_
The response time is faster than the Indian scam centers when ur age is more than 65
Ay another Supercut. I've said this before and I'll say it again. "Even though I've already watched these, imma watch them again :)"
What you said!!
@@amanzeihedioha are you angry at me for something?
21:12 in that scene Rowan's hands are different from the back shot. He is threating Adam with a first but from the back shot he have open palms.
He’s that quick with his hands
Having worked in a call center i can confirm that they do NOT like to call themselves call center. EVER. Similar to how you never say "ZOMBIE" in a zombie movie but walking dead or runners...

Waiting for an episode where Byron finds the white shirt and takes over
Who?
@nonbasicz Byron, you know, he's always worked there
im still shocked that haymish finally won one
Until he gets home and it is an empty box for the display model 🙂
Still a massive net loss though
Rowan could be one of the best character actors I've ever seen.
Rowan! Fantastic work! Watching him develop into a sociopath over the seasons has been incredible. Like the Smoking episode is perfection lol.
The 223 skit, was the teenager voiced by Adam? Still kinda hear Adam's lack of confidence in it! Also that probably was Allan's most courageous moment ever, god knows what vile shiznit a teenager's laptop can contain!😅
Yes, that was Adam doing the teenager's voice
I thought there was going to be a plot twist with Adam being revealed as the caller which is why he wasn't at the call centre.
@@HellHunter00 but Adam can be seen wiping Alan's head...
I haven’t had a good laugh in so long I can’t remember. I nearly pissed myself with the noise canceling bit😂😂😂😂
Why this hasn’t been picked up by Netflix or Amazon is a genuine shock to me
Byron be like : this is my villian awakening arc
6:30 Who else expected him to open the box and Actualy get a USB stick For 900$😂😂
I'll be honest if Rowan was my manager i would have been in jail for years now.
Not just for murder but extreme gratuitous, sadistic murder.
I'm soooo forking happy that Hamish finally got what he wanted
Oh wow - it's the 17th of June today! HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRYAN! BRIAN! BYRON!
Rowan is such a good character. He's both blunt and mischievous so you never know when he's aware of what he's doing
Byron skits are absolute genius
Rowan could have told Hamish "Sorry sir, that box is only a display, and we have to keep 1 in stock for a display" xD
Rowan struggling to contain his rage is one of my favorite bits.
I know I've watched all of these (multiple times) but I still get so excited for the supercuts!
I love how Rowan just pops out of the ground whenever he feels there's something wrong.
These guys have big early Rooster Teeth vibes and I am so happy that I found them. RT became a shit fest and so to finally find someone to fill the shoes has me absolutely ecstatic!
That customer service bit was spot on. As well as the rules!
25:46 ‘I need some sigarette smoke in my lungs because it’s yummy’ genuis!
VLDL keeping comedy alive! I love the Bored Cinematic Universe
Ben sneaking in as “voice on phone” love it
The first skit was too real for me, I'm currently off work from a call center due to anxiety/depression, and it is pretty much the same rules.
I can't imagine having to do that for a living. I always try to be nice to call center employees. Even if I have a problem with the company, it's not the poor call center employee's fault.

@ 28:56 birthday boy - possibly best actor I've seen in last 10 years or so.
How Alan holds a cig makes me think he actually does smoke
Or at the very least, used to.

Feels so good to see the customer guy winning for once :)
Oh cool something to listen to while working a double!

Oh, poor Byron. I figured it was going to be cruel.
I love how Rowan was genuinely considering getting a massage from ben’s massage business
Finally Hamish won something for once, hes always getting screwed over xD
I just hope can include Brian... I mean Byron more on bored episodes. He is just too funny xD
Not gonna lie the vibes when Adam and Alan were playing rubbish bin basketball with Forget It (alex ansaldi) playing was some of the most wholesome, just coworkers having fun moment I've seen in the whole Bored series! Of course Rowan had to muck it up...
Regarding the customer service bit, I noticed there is no rules against just putting the headphones down and not saying anything.
I will never get tired of these videos and I never want it to end
SO good to see a decent outcome for Hamish for once.
6:03 - When bad associates makes you frustrated, try to take advantage of them.
Loved all episodes! Noise cancelling was so funny!
I'm so happy that Hamish finally got something good in a video
After 230 episodes i'm still not sure who is treated worse. Is it Adam? Or is it Brayy...ron? Braron. Byron.
Actually its rowan
A trick for ep. 221: put them on hold until either they hang up, or are ready to listen. We once had a customer that wouldn't listen to my manager, so we put her on hold, and she waited there for *20 MINUTES* until my manager had me pick up and pretend to be her manager. Then she finally listened. 🤣
That birthday bit is too much xD
the episode 225 rembembers my school class mate when he wins a soccer match.
A bored video for a bored person. I’m feeling it!
@12:48 woulda been absolutely HYSTERICAL if Ellie walked in just as Alan dropped trou!!😂 "OH my GOD!!" (Appalled face)
I bet they could make a very successful and funny over the top movie. I would definitely go watch it. Adam has a great range as does Rowan.
7:50
How was I able to recognise that was Adam's voice 😂😂😂
The fact Rowan was crushing company paper and throwing it and encouraging others is priceless
okay the loosing the lighter thing is a total real thing. The whole bit made me die of laughter.
so good to see Hamish win for once!
The first one yeah- I worked different customer services jobs for 7 years and that was so spot on, manager doesnt care and wont give advice, you cant hang up, anything wrong is your fault, anything right is rarely thanks to you but generally more because you have 'such a great manager'.
Hey legends, thank you for keeping our spirits up
The collaboration between Viva and Auntie Donna is just great 👍
Ellie is going to put Playtech out of business. She should actually think about how high she’s getting paid if she wants it extend out. Lmao
Have you seen Rowan’s business practices? Free samples for one
@TobisaruJC no no they are right, at 189.50 shes making 379k a year. That is gonna raise some eyebrows at corporate a lot quicker than if she was making like 100k
