[Unofficial] Transcript of a Phone Call at Work

Master Fob: New New Job, this is Master Fob, how may I help you?

Old Lady: Firstname Lastname, that's L as in Long, A as in Artichoke, S as in Susan, T as in Toronto, N as in Nancy, A as in Aardvark, M as in Martin, E as in Earring.

MF: And what can I do for you?

OL: Connect me to that person, please.

MF: I'm sorry, does that person work for New New Job? Perhaps in the warehouse?

OL: What? No. Just connect me to her.

MF: Ma'am, do you know that you've called a retail store?

OL: What retail store?

MF: New New Job retail store, in Seattle.

OL: Well, I want you to turn off this connection and connect me to Firstname Lastname.

MF: I'm sorry, I don't know that person.

OL: Don't you have a directory of all the people with telephones numbers in Seattle?

MF: No, I'm sorry, I don't. Perhaps you should call information?

OL: Oh, okay, thank you.

    Ha! Grand.

    Side note: When this transcript began, I thought it would be like a Dr. Seuss conversation, what with the "New New Job, this is Master Fob . . ."

    To piggyback on DesMama . . .

    Or a Lemony Snicket book, particularly The End.

    That person has called me at home!!!

    P.S. I find it scarey when the word verification tries to carry on a conversation with me. Stop it!!!
