Caller: “Hello. I work offshore. I got home from a three-week assignment yesterday, and the wife and I were doing the… you know… We were being… uhh…”
Me: “…intimate?”
Caller: “Nah. It was pretty rough. But anyhow, we were doing our thing.”
(At this point, I’m pretty sure the caller is actually a buddy of mine, pranking me. I am wrong.)
Me: “Sir, this is a stereo repair shop. Are you aware–”
Caller: “Yeah, yeah, sorry. That’s not the point. When we got done, I noticed the music had stopped. I looked over there, and there were fumes coming off the receiver. So, I called your customer service number and they told me I need to write a description of the problem. I don’t know what happened, so I figured I’d call a tech guy to help me with the description. You got any idea what I should write?”
Me: “Well, uhh… how about ‘smokes after sex’?”
Caller: *laughing* “DONE! I like yer style, my friend!”
(That call totally made my day. I almost got fired over it, but it was worth it!)
