Do people ever use something like Amazon Mechanical Turk to outsource common but amazingly frustrating tasks? This has to be a thing.

Without even blinking, I’d pay $50 right now for someone to get on the phone and deal with a certain establishment to either get me a refund or get me the product I ordered.

This is exactly what we do. Get in touch.
