Funny Ways To Answer Internal Calls.

I've got a pretty good impression of "Announcer voice" I would pull this on the front desk staff at least once a week. And we had one girl who always fell for it.

Me: "Hello.. thank you for calling... moviephone! To make a selection... Please... Press one"
Her: *beep*
Me: *snort* "For... Back office... Please... Press two. For... Accounting... Please... Press three. For... Your Manager... please... press 4..5..3..2..6"
Her: *beep, beep, beep, beep, beep*
*All of us in the back on speaker phone...* HAHAHAHA!

and yes I know its mean to make fun of someone. But, fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. What do you say to "Fool me 15 times" ???


Or, my personal favorite: "Ed Case for Senator, Vote Early Vote Often!

There was an ancient, bitchy woman in the vitamin department that used to do nothing. On nights when I was managing, I'd watch her move shit back and forth across the counter forever then eventually, I'd page down to her...

"Pat. This is GOD speaking! God sees you just moving stuff back and forth. GOD says price it and move it to the shelf. THOU SHALT OBEY GOD!"

It just never got old. She'd usually give me the finger and complain about me to the manager of the vitamin department, but everyone was on my side. Pat would complain that I had no respect for elders, but in actuality I have respect for most of my elders. I just base my respect for someone on what kind of person they are, regardless of age. She didn't get that.

I just answer "city morgue"

If there was a really nasty customer looking for me, I'd hide in the office. It was usually the same woman too. She was addicted to Flax Seed Waffles. She'd buy half a dozen boxes a week and if I ran out, she'd go CRAZY!

Also, customers that would buy large quantities of rye grain were all crazy. I think they had ergot poisoning or something.

nice!

SCOTCH TAPE!

That's my usual.
