Wanda Sykes
I used to love to hate Wanda Sykes until Pete took me to a live show of hers. She got her claim to fame by pissing off Bill Cosby at the Oscars a few years back. She also had a TV show (Wanda At Large) that didn't do so well. She's much better doing stand-up. Most people will probably remember her, however, for her part as Jane Fonda's sarcastic assistant Ruby in the movie Monster in Law.
As I'm a big believer in tolerant customer service I'm playing the following phone call to our service people as an example of what type of people they sometimes might have to deal with professionally. So, here's a good example of a tough serivce call.
Here's another great one (be warned; content definitely not suitable for minors). Now picture your wife or girlfriend getting a call like this one.
Enjoy! ;-)

She was especially good in Curb Your Enthusiasm, which is pretty much ad-hoc stand-up anyway. That woman has one heck of a mouth on her.
