I lead a conference call every Friday morning. So, I dial in at 9AM and start taking attendance. Paige, check. Nattalie, check. AJ, WTF? George, WTF?

Oh wait, my call is at 9-frickin-30!!

<-- LOSER!!

[alphabassettgrrl]

Not loser - you're extra prompt!

[Alex]

But why were Paige and Nattalie there?

[blueerica]

They're in both the 9 AM and the 9:30 AM calls.

Tricksie!

I'm use to dialing 9 to get out at work.

So, I'm at home and making a call. I dial 9, forgetting I'm at home. My old phone has a sticky 1 button (I hate dialing 1 and area code in the 714 area!), and I heard it beep twice so I hung up. Then I pick up again and I hear no dial tone (thinking I picked back up too quick) and I hear "hello?" just as I hang up again. I thought "who was that??". I picked the phone back up, no one there, and dialed out.

Then a few minutes later a knock at the door. Two cops. I had dialed 911 by mistake.

I got a 911 abuse ticket.

This one I didn't do.......


Today at work I get a delivery of assorted packages. One was for a woman named Lara. Only someone typed LARD.

It was from outside the company, so the sender had no idea that Lara has a weight problem. How unfortunate.

Hi Erica,

Hopefully you’ve had a chance to review the attached marketing copy points for the catalog and DVD mailer. Let me know if you have any feedback or if it’s good to go.

Thanks,

[Insert Boss Lady's Name] – do you have time this afternoon to go over this? I tooooootally forgot to review this with you on Monday.

Thanks,

Yeah, like I needed to let Steve know that I toooooooootally forgot about this super-important thing.

I was sure I didn't need sun screen, since it was just an hour boat ride and I'm already tan from living in LA, right?

[Ghoulish Delight]

Had lunch with a friend, after which he had a phone job interview scheduled. When I got home from work I was curious how it went, so I texted him.

Me: How'd the interview go.

Friend: He got into a car accident, so it didn't

[I have now assumed that his girlfriend has possession of his phone and is responding for him]

Me: WTF? Really?

[no response]

Me: We had lunch a block and a half from work, what happened? And is he okay

the Girlfriend: Don't know details, his admin was just told to cancel all his meetings, she doesn't know any more.

Me: So you haven't talked to him yet?

[no response - now I'm wracking my brain trying to piece together why she has his phone but doesn't know details, hasn't talked to him, and isn't saying whether he's okay.]

Me: Well, let me know when you know more, and if there's any way we can help

Girlfriend: Oh, no worries. He's trying to reschedule. Hope the dude's okay

[err, that's a weird thing for the girlfriend to say.]

Me: Wait, who is this?

Girlfriend?: Who's what? The dude I had the interview with?

..............


Oooooooooooh! The "he" who had an accident was... and the whole time it wasn't...

I graduated high school with a 4.3 GPA you know.
