The Wrongest Number Got You
(I spend several years taking in-bound calls for infomercials. Every day is an adventure. We have a lot of people who write an infomercial phone number down at two in the morning and the next day can’t remember what the product was.)
Me: “This is [My Name]. How may I help you?”
Caller: “What the… Who the h*** is this?”
Me: “This is [My Name]; how may I help you?”
Caller: “Uh, what number did I call…?”
Me: “Well, I’m not sure. There are several thousand possibilities of products that lead to my phone; were you watching something on TV?”
Caller: “Well, yeah, but isn’t this where the ‘me so horny’ girls call you back?”
Me: “Uh… No! We take orders off of infomercials you see on TV. You must have written it down wrong.”
Caller: “F***! That just ruined my whole morning.” *click*
