Have you heard this yet? It's a .wav file that's pretty darn funny. It's supposedly a copy of a voice mail that's making its way around the Internet. Some guy is calling his boss & leaving a message telling him he'll be late, then becomes a play-by-play commentator when he witnesses a car wreck, all caught on the voicemail tape.
Snopes currently has it listed as "undetermined." I received the wav file yesterday in an email and don't have any way to host it, but you just HAVE to listen to this. The man leaving the message is just as funny as the message he's leaving!
It looks like it's all over Google already: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=%22Jack+in+the+Box%22+%22operations+manager%22+voicemail&btnG=Google+Search
I downloaded and listened to it from this site:

Jack in the box Voicemail
On a recent Spurs trip, we were asking one of our sponsors who works at Jack in the Box some funny stories or experiences with the company. The funniest story he had was when an operations manager was late for a meeting and called his boss to tell him he was running late. As he was leaving the voice mail message, he witnessed an accident and went on to provide "play by play" of the incident. After telling us the story, he promised to send us a copy of the voice mail and here it is. This is the actual voice mail message. It was passed along and forwarded so many times within Jack in the Box; it crashed their voice mail server. Download voice_mail.mp3
Enjoy!

LOL - funny stuff!
There's at least one place in the tape where you can tell it's looped, so I'm not sure it's genuine. But even if it's a fake, the guy should win a prize for such good acting.!
Bump for people Freepin right now.
I have to run for awhile. Be back later.
Darn you. I was laughing so hard, I started choking and lost my breath.
ROTFLOL! Very funny.
Check this out.
Hilarity!
I forgot to provide the Snopes link:

I listened to it yesterday at work and has to get up to shut the door. I was literally afraid I would pee my pants!
I got this in my email last week.
Damn near peed my pants listening to it.
I forwarded it to my son to listen to.
He ruined the moment for me by reminding me that voice mail is hardly, if ever run at 3 or 4 min intervals.
But it was still quite funny, nonetheless.

Thanks for the ping. I don't know which is funnier, the incident he's describing or his hysterical laughter!
It sounds fake, but then again - I'm not from the South.
ROTF......thanks, Jet.
I'm with you. My bet is it's fake. Funny, though. Notice no street background noise or screech of tires or sound of impact.
Thanks that is funny!!!
My husband's company voicemail will record as long as somebody is talking.....10 minutes, 15....whatever. Of course the server will get bogged down...but it can be done. If it's fake, the guy deserves an academy award.
PING - Check this link out - for a great belly laugh.
Check.
