I got this call on my mobile and it was my best friend from clebourne texas and I said....

Me: "Happy Holidays!" Thank you for calling ......... My name is ....... How may I assist you"

She responded to me as: Woah! you have to say that phrase everytime you pick up the phone..

I say: Technically!!!!

She: Burst in laughing ....I mean literally , she was laughing so hard

Talk about me getting humilated in front of this girl i like~~!!!

I have done that before, personal cell after work, just instinctual to give your opening you give X times a day

[Katwyld]

Done it many, many times... recently it was 'File room, this is Kat'... my friend was cracking up. heh

Ugh! I had that happen to me once, except I answer e-mails 10 times more than I answer phones (huzzah!). I was typing up an application for grant money for a side project of mine one day, and I sent the final draft to my friend to proofread before I send it in. 5 minutes later I get an e-mail:

Looks good, but you told me this was for PROJECT. Why is COMPANY's name all over the place?

Gasp! I'd nearly applied for a grant for my company! That could have been bad...

I thought it was funny, but considering how close I was to sending it in without proofing...I reread my e-mails nowadays.

PS we got the grant.

I once answered my cell phone "Thank you for calling *realizing what I just said* Jennifer's cell phone, this is Jennifer speaking, how may I help you?"

Luckily it was only my mom.

I once answered my cell phone "Thank you for calling *realizing what I just said* Jennifer's cell phone, this is Jennifer speaking, how may I help you?"

I've done that too... Our shop's greeting was "Good morning/afternoon Argos Extra Shrewsbury, Me speaking, how can I help?" One Sunday morning before work, I answered the home phone with "Good morning, A....nd who did you want to speak to?"

They never thought anything strange about it, but I think it was about then I realised I'd been in the job too long.

Luckily it was only my mom.

Back when I worked phone support at a major bank, I changed my personal cell phone answering message to reflect me saying my corporate greeting, then going, "Oh, shit..."
Mom told me once that it confused the hell out of her.

I've done that so often, my friends and family aren't even surprised anymore LOL

Years ago, when I was Repair Manager for a Radio Shack Computer Center almost the only incoming call was the daily 10AM from RS National Parts in Fort Worth to see what I needed to order.

So I'd answer the phone: "Confusion Shack Radio Center"

[ShugoAC]

Yeah i've done that too. But i've got one better for you.... Several years ago I was engaged to a girl who was the only one who ever really called me on my cellphone. Other people had the number but they mostly just texted me if they wanted to communicate.

So one day my coworker calls me up and asks me to come in early cause someone was sick. No sweat, i was sitting at home watch TV anyhow. So i unthinkingly replied "Yeah that's not a problem, give me 15mins to get dressed and get there. Love you sweetie." and then I hung up.

Needless to say that shift was painful and amusing. My coworker (female) spent the next 8 hours telling everyone who walked in the door how i'd professed my undying love for her.
