At a small company, phone answering duties tend to get spread around, so fairly often I end up answering the main line, and then transferring the caller to whoever they really want to talk to. This call, however, left me puzzled:
Me: "Company X"
Stupid Caller: "Person Y please"
Me: "That person is no longer with the company"
SC: "I'll call back in a few minutes" ::click::
Me: " "
So what does this guy think, we're going to go out and find Person Y and re-hire them before he calls back?


Ha, I love it when they say.
Are you sure?
