I especially loved it when I was the one who had just left the message, so I knew for a fact it was very clearly indicated that, yes, their book was in.

"Hi this is A calling from B&N Mytown, for Customer. I was just calling to let you know that the book you ordered has come in, and we will hold it for you at the front desk until X date. Thank you and have a nice day."

What is unclear about that?

"Ok... "

(phone rings) "'lo, B&N, this is B&NG, how can i help you?"

"yeah, i got a call from someone there that said my book was in."

(silence for a few beats) "ooookay, did you have a question...?"

"so, is my book in?"

"Yes, your book came in... but we'll only sell it to you if you can answer the 3 Riddles of the B&N Goddess!!"

I had one woman call me at Kinko's and when I picked up the phone, all she said was "I called yesterday and talked to B."

Great, I wanted to say, my underwear is baby blue. What's your point?

They think they are the only ones calling. Maybe the only ones in the world.

I would be terribly tempted to say, "Really? B died in a copier accident two weeks ago."

Hmm...must write that down....

"No, it's not. Actually, all of us B&N girls think you're really cute, and wanted to lure you down to the store, even though your book isn't in yet."

i'd mess with his head and tell him that all the B&N guys thought he was cute... just to hear his reaction...

[Nephy]

"so, is my book in?"

"No, it's not. Actually, we hate you, and wanted to tease you."

Well, he was probably thinking more along the lines of"
