Or, here’s a winner...
Phone rings...
You answer and say the name of the company
They say, what?
You repeat the name of the compay...
Then they ask if they’ve reached a completely different company...
WTF?
I had a great misdial last year when I got a call on my cell phone while working on an experiment.
I answered the phone and this guy just starts tearing into me. He’s yelling so loud that my co-worker can clearly hear the stream of profanities comming from this guy.
So I said, “Who the hell is this?”
He responds, “This is your father!” and starts yelling again.
I say, “How are you doing that, you’ve been dead for 11 years?”
That’s when the guy realized he had dialed the wrong number.
Here you go:
Sign at the end of the driveway by my guardshack says “[company name] truck EXIT only.”
Driver for CRST/UPS/Werner/NFI/etc drives down road, stops, READS the sign four or five times, then comes tearing down the EXIT until they reach me, then get out to ask:
“Is this Do It Best/Home Depot/UPS?”
Sign says who we are..
..and it isn’t any of the above.
