Go back home, then call to get directions

[depechemodefan]

Note, this isn't too sucky, but then she gave me attitude. Woman calls me on her cell phone.

note: it's obvious she is on a cell phone.
CS: I need directions to get to your library. I got on Washington but I couldn't find Ruse. I come from Pearland
Me: Ok, you were taking 59N or 45N to get to Washington?
CS: No, I come from 288 and took 45N and took the Washington/Memorial dr. exit. I was following mapquest. I came back home.
Me: Ok, it's Memorial dr./Langly exit.
CS: hello?
Me: Hello? Can you hear me? Maybe you should use something else than the cell phone.
CS: I need someone to give me instructions!
Me: Ok, if you can't hear me, maybe you should use another phone.
CS: I didn't call for someone to argue with me. I need instructions to get to your library. I don't have any other phone.

rest of it was me giving instructions and she was amiable.

But why go all the way downtown, and then turn around and go all the way home? Why not pull over and call? Why argue with me if I can't hear you? I'm suggesting you use another phone because your cell phone obviously sucks.

Hahahahahaha, I know where you work now.

Honestly, I didn't know you worked in Houston.

I try not to give too much info. about where I work because the PIO googles the name of this place to see if there is good press or bad press on us. I really don't need the woman to find my postings!

someday she's going to be doing that "hello hello, what's the directions, where's that exit..." THUMP. "Omg i hit another car!"


sometimes it pays to put the car on the side of the road and then call. ...

Wait, wait...so she drove ALL THEY WAY BACK TO PEARLAND before she decided to call and ask for directions?

I wonder what she needed that she had to get at your library, as opposed to one closer to home?
