Congratulations! you've just won the WEIRDEST CALL OF THE WEEK AWARD
what the flip is WITH people?!
Caller ID said Brookhaven Hospital, so I picked up. (I have family over in that area of LI, and its never really good when you get a call from a hospital, right?)
Conversation as follows:
[ME] hello?
[HIM] hello?
[ME] hello?
[HIM] hello?
[ME] WHO'S CALLING?
[HIM] um...who's this?
[ME] sir, you called me. I'm hanging up.
[HIM] you sound like Shelby. Are you Shelby's friend?
(At this point, I'm amused by how dumb this guy sounds, so I entertain his questions.)
[ME] Nope, don't know a Shelby. Who's calling?
[HIM] ummm, this number showed up on my phone bill as a number i called, and i went over my minutes, so they charged me for it.
[ME] ok, i don't think i can help you with that. (about to hang up)
[HIM] WAIT! Don't hang up!
[ME] Sir, I don't think I can help you.
[HIM] Well, can I have your name so I can tell the phone company I don't know you, and they can credit me?
[ME] No. Have a good day.
[HIM] Well you're not really being very helpful. I really went over my minutes and I really don't know why I would've called you.
[ME] Buhbye
[HIM] (distraught) WAIT! You're OK with letting a fellow American get taken advantage of by the monopoly we call cell service?!?!
[ME] click (mute button!!!!)
[HIM] wow, what a b#$ch!!! (hangs up)
That is the DUMBEST CALL I'VE HAD IN A LONG TIME!!!!

Too funny!!!!
I actually had a telemarketor call the other night, when I picked up, she said... "oh, my computer went out, who did I call" So I asked her who she was trying to reach, and she repeated her computer was out and what my name was. I didn't give her my name, but told her when her computer came up and if my name was there, to call me back. Needless to say, I haven't gotten a return phone call!

Re: Congratulations! you've just won the WEIRDEST CALL OF THE WEEK AWARD
wacko!!!
That's better then the guy who called me the other day...
me: "hello"
him: "hey what's up?"
me: "who's this?"
him: "you mean you don't know? How was your weekend?"
me: "really, who is this?"
him: "Who do you think it is?"
me: "i don't know, you called me"
we go back and forth w/ this and I was about to hang up when he says:
"I actually dialed the wrong number, but you sounded cute, so I thought I would talk to you. There's nothing wrong with that, right? So, what did you do this weekend?"
Me: "listen, I'm sorry you have the wrong number, and I'm married..."
him: "oh, %$@&! (click)
The reason why this call lasted as long as it did was because one of DH's friends never ID's himself when he calls, just says "what's up". He doesn't call enough for me to recognize his voice either. Who sits and chats w/ a wrong #?!
