Get ready. Get set. GOOOOOO!
Sorry if this is the wrong section for this, please move if need be.
So..... I've been working at an after hours answering service. I've had a good amount of fun stories, but relating most of them would violate my confidentiality contract thingy
Here is one I can relate though and not mess myself up
I took a call today for a certain company. What the company is or does doesn't really matter. I've changed names to protect myself, yada yada.
W- Weirdo caller
M- Me!!!!!!!!
Bob- Someone who works for said company
M- Thank you for calling Yada Yada Services, this is Silver, how can I help you?
W- Hello! Is Bob there?
M- Not at the moment, may I take a message?
W- Sure!!!!! I'm weirdo with Who Cares Inc. (spoken quickly) and my phone number is 111 222 3333 extension 4444 and this message is for Bob.
(At this point I am about to reask his name and how to spell the name of the company [some weird long thing])
W Let's have a race and see who can get off the phone quicker. Get ready, get set, g---
M- Sir, I need you to spell your name and company name.
W- Oh, sure! *Blah Blah* at *Who Cares Inc.*
M- *I verify phone number and name*
W- Ok, Thank you. Now get ready, get set, GO!!!!!
*CLICK*
Oh and he was VERY enthusiastic and cheery.
Now
? Who does that? Is this some "get off the phone" trick I've never heard of?
