Alex works remotely and spends most of her shifts getting yelled at by strangers through her headset. Yes, she hates her job. Yes, she fantasizes about quitting daily. But doesn’t everyone? That’s what she tells herself at least. That’s what she tells herself so that she can endure her miserable 9-5 (or rather, her miserable 3 pm-midnight). She copes with junk food and cannabis and dreams of a day when she can take her headset off for good, but a fateful encounter with a caller in the midst of a severe mental health crisis sends her spiraling and forces her to reckon with her own history of suicidal ideation. "Thank You For Calling" is a dramatized version of a real encounter at a real job. At its core, it is a story about isolation, hope, and how we fight to bear the unbearable, and imbue our lives with meaning.
