Don’t Question The Questioner
I work as a receptionist. We’ve just come back from holidays when the phone rings.
Me: “[Business #1], good morning!”
Caller: “Hi, I’m [Caller] from [Business #2]. Is the owner in today?”
Me: “Yes, what was your first name again?”
Caller: *Sighs* “I’m [Caller] from [Business #2]. Can you please transfer my call?”
Me: “Okay, [Caller], may I ask what the call is regarding?”
Caller: “I think I’m the one who is asking the questions here. Transfer my call.”
Me: *Stunned* “I need to know what the call is regarding before I’m able to transfer your call.”
Caller: “Thank you.” *Hangs up*
