Actually, that makes sense why that happens.
I sadly had to do telemarketing for a while (very short while) and the computer would dial... if no one answered, we didn't deal with it. But if the line connected (person, fax machine (pain), or answering machine) it transferred us over. Normally, the transfer was pretty quick, so we'd hear it's an answering machine, and hang up, go on to the next call.
Sometimes, though, the system would be overloaded and slow, and we'd only get the call several seconds later... after the message ended. So we have no clue who or what we're talking to. That's why it happens.
It was tough, though, getting in on the line, having the name display half a second after I picked up, and literally having a fraction of a second to figure out how to pronounce it. Even simple names sometimes threw me, like "patrice" would first look like "patrick" so I'd say "pat rice" That got em angry, heh...
