Sorry, wrong number

[The Shredder]

Interesting .....

 

[C. Lee]

I used to constantly get calls for a niece of mine......after telling a couple dozen people they had the wrong number.....I started saying they had the right one, but she wasn't home at the moment because she was out with Bob, then asked if they wanted to leave a message.....after a while the calls quit.










I always wondered what happened to Bob though.

my old cellphone number was 777-1100, which is apparently a very easy number to misdial, so i got about 3 different wrong number calls a week. one doctor's office did it multiple times and left urgent sounding messages on my voicemail... one was about how an analysis came in and they wanted to talk about it. didn't leave a number though.

and once, when i was very tired, i called from my house to check my cellphone's voicemail (it was a non-local number) and i misdialed the area code and ended up calling some poor family in ohio at 2 in the morning.

I hate when you tell them they have the wrong number and then they question you.

Caller: Is Ralph there?
Me: YOu have the wrong number.
Caller: Well, who is THIS?
Me: I'm not Ralph so what the **** do you care?

 

[C. Lee]

My answering machine says - "You have reached the home of Calvin and Carla Lee..."

So imagine my bewilderment at the guy who left the message - "Jim, where are you...we been trying to reach you for days."

Me: Hello, Movie Gallery.
Caller: Halle Berry.
Me: Yes, we have movies with her.
Caller: Do you have Halle Berry?
Me: -slaps forehead- Yes, we have Halle Berry movies.
Caller: Oh. -hangs up-

This is somewhat related...

One time a few years back...an military recruit called the house looking for me. This was prolly the 4th call I had in a month so obviously I wasn't in the mood. I told him that I wasn't here and that I was our next door neighbor and that I wasn't home. He asked me what I was doing at the house if I wasn't home...I tripped up and told him that as their neighbor, I was babysitting. LOL.

Eventually the convo got around to the point where he knew I was lying so I confessed and told him that I was actually my younger brother.

Anyways, he asked how old I was...knowing where he was going with it I said, 16. Then this is how the rest of the convo went:

Recruit: "Well, according to our records your 18."
Me (as my lil' brother): "Oh, yeah...that's right."
Recruit: "You know son, it really isn't polite to lie to someone over the phone...especially someone who's went to war and fought for the freedom that you enjoy to this day. In fact it's kind of disrespectful."
Me (again, as my brother): "I'm sorry sir, I didn't mean to disrespect you, i've just had a bad day."
:long pause:
Recruit: "All right, lets start over and just talk for a lil' bit...now it says here that you already graduated from high school."
Me (as brother): "Yeah, class of 2004."
Recruit: "It says here class of 2006?"
Me (as brother): "Oh yeah, right um...whatever."

:Recruiter hangs up:

Now I didn't mean to do that but seriously theres only so many times you can tell them "I'M NOT INTERESTED" in a single month before you lose your patience. In hindsight, it was pretty funny.

I guess my number is kind close to the one of the medical center,. Cause everyone i get a wrong number with someone asking if this is the slatebelt medical center.

The next time someone calls i should be like yes it is what is your emergenecy?

Me: Yeah ________ , I remember you
girl: Sorry I bothered you
Me; It's ok, no worry
Girl: Goodnight

 

[Holly Goodhead]

I always get calls about winning a car or vacation from a form I filled out. I didn't fill out any forms. I just hang up

 

[KingOfDreams]

Recruit: "You know son, it really isn't polite to lie to someone over the phone...especially someone who's went to war and fought for the freedom that you enjoy to this day. In fact it's kind of disrespectful."

I would have told him to get off his high horse.

I got a call at the Comic Shop once.

Me: Dj's Universal Comics.
Caller: whisper whisper
Me: I'm sorry, sir, I can't hear you.
Caller: Do you sell whisper whisper?
Me: I'm having trouble hearing you still, sir. This is a comic book store. Are you looking for a specific comic?
Caller: Do you sell adult comics?
Me: Oooooh, you mean like hentai?
Caller: Bondage Fairies.
Me: Oh, no sir, we don't. But Meltdown in Hollywood does. Want me to give you the number?
Caller: No I can't write it down. Mother might find it. I'll look it up. Thank you.

Seriously, if you are going to buy dirty books, and you are too embarassed to speak out loud, you aren't ready for the dirty books.

dew do you live in LA? i got to meltdown sometimes, but i usually go to hi-de-ho

Way back when, in my dating stage (7 years ago) I got a phone call... I assumed it was my boyfriend on the other end (voice very similar) and the caller said, "Hi honey, how are you"? Well, me being me, I went into "flirt" mode... needless to say it wasn't my boyfriend on the other end of the line, but you wouldn't believe how long it took me to figure that out. t:

What a loser. If you are going to look at dirty pictures atleast look at REAL people in porno mags or on the internet.

Dude, military recruiters get annoying as hell, I got calls about as often as you did, and I can't even enlist.

[Ben Urich]

I was in Algebra II in 11th grade and my cell phone rang. My teacher was a friggin' dingbat, so she had no idea I was on the phone despite the fact that she was 3 feet away from me.

"Hello?"
"Hi, how much are your manicures?"
"I'm sorry?"
"How much are your manicures?"
"Oh, sorry, you must have the wrong number. This isn't a salon."
"Oh! I'm so sorry!" *hangs up*

30 seconds later...
"Hello?"
"Hi. How much are your manicures?"
"Wrong number."
"Oh, sorry to bother you again." *hangs up*

30 seconds later...
"Hello?"
"Yes, how much are your manicures?"
"... $35."
"Great! And how late are you open?"
"9."
"Wonderful! See you then!"

*end of call*
