  • That's kindof the reason you are here

    Not sucky, and I think it fits here better...

    Loving Husband comes to my office to take care of something for his wife. Thoughs inside *s

    LH: My wife wants her phone number put in the gate system where we live, and she sent me to do it.
    Me: Sure! Where do you live?
    LH: Uh... I don't know
    Me: ...really? (yes, I said this out loud )
    LH: Oh it's <place>
    Me: Okay, and what's her phone number.
    LH: Uh... I don't know
    Me: ...
    LH: ...but maybe it's in my phone?
    Me: ... (I would hope that with all the other numbers you have saved, one of them would be your wife)
    LH: ...(looks through phone)... I don't call her very much. Maybe I should...
    Me: ...(call her once in a while? save her phone number somewhere? seek immediate medical attendtion?)
    LH: ...I'll just come back when I have it.

    I did recognize the guy, so he wasn't a creep fishing for a phone number. He called about 5 minutes later from her cell phone and gave me the number.

    The results of technology. My mother called me the other day on her cell to ask for both the home number and cell number for her, she also asked me to spell the name of the street she lives on.

      Hahaha, so true.

      I didn't used to give out my cell number a lot, so when I was asked for it, I usually tended to hold out my hand like I was holding my cell and dial with my thumb in the air so I would know the numbers [lol]

      I've gotten better, but I still catch myself doing that sometimes, hehe.

        For a while I would start (accidentally) giving my boyfriend's number instead of mine, since I called him every day and that always was the first number that came to mind! I usually manage to remember to give my own number now

          I must admit that one of the contacts on my phone is ME. Has all my phone numbers, emails, addresses, etc...

          Guys, call your wives every once in a while...

            She wouldn't like what I'd call her... It's been over 22 years, after all.

              I do that with Hubby's number all the time. It doesn't help that our numbers are almost opposites of each other. (first three numbers of mine are similar to his last four, and vice versa)

                Boyfie's number and mine start with the same 4 digits since we're with the same phone company. So I'd recite those and then have to pause!

                  I do this it at work, with produce codes mostly. I have to type out the sequence so I can tell someone the numbers. They think it's hilarious.
