Unfiltered Story #193885
(I work for a small nonprofit and am answering the phone)
Me: [nonprofit], how may I help you?
Caller” Yeah I’m trying to reach [ethanol company].
Me: Well we’re a legal nonprofit so I’m afraid you have the wrong number.
Caller: What the hell does that have to do with ethanol?!?
Me: Uhh…nothing.
Caller: (unintelligible swearing) [hangs up]
He kept calling back and swearing when I answered.
When he called back for a third time in a row:
Me: If you keep hitting redial you’re going to keep getting the wrong number.
Caller: (more swearing) [hangs up]
