Taking the state seriously – Dave’s compilation of call center music for government departments

We all get annoyed with call center staff.  None more so than those designated to represent the government when you call up to whinge on about the inherent inefficiencies and fallacies of the laissez-faire economic  model.  In alleviating the tension and stress that derives from such unpleasant dealings, I have proposed something that dwells on the lighter side of the issues at hand.  Ladies, gentlemen, hermaphrodites, asexuals, transgendered persons and Grace Jones, I bring you, Dave’s compilation of call center music for government departments!
