Dial a Human, a web directory of shortcuts and end-runs around unnecessary prompts, eases the pain. Right now, the site&#8217;s just a long, single-page list of what button combinations to press to get to a real person, but user submissions can bolster the page to become a more universal directory. Take a quick read down the page, and you&#8217;ll realize that jamming on &#8220;0&#8221; repeatedly just won&#8217;t cut it any more.
