Wrong number?

[Freckles]

A few months ago I came home to discover a voice mail on my telephone:

"This is Tanya xxxxx's Mother and I want her to come home immediately or else....." This went on for about two minutes with even the police going to be involved.

I often wonder what happened when Tanya got home.

I often wonder what happened when Tanya got home.

LOL! good stories! Hope Tanya finally made it home.
I've been getting quotes from different moving companies that have come out. One guy called me after a couple days and said "Oh my gosh! I just realized we had your phone number down wrong! I called & left messages three times at the wrong number. The last call, I went through the whole quote! Then they called me back & said I've been leaving messages on the wrong answering machine." LOL! He was very apologetic. Those other people didn't realize they were "moving"!

I used to work in a Craft store when i was in college. Once a week, someone would misdial my home number thinking it was the Craft Store (since it was only 1 number off, and the numbers were above/below each other on the keypad).

I'd usually explain to them that they had the wrong number, but ... since i worked at the store anyway, what were they looking for and i could tell them if we generally carried it at the store ...

craftstore (###) 742-####
my.house (###) 745-####

It always made me snicker, and my roomates always got a kick out of it too

Here's one that happened to me.

A guy came up to me at work in the hallway. He said "Sharon, I need you to take this box over to xyz."
I said, "I'm not Sharon."
He: "Yes you are."
Me: "No, I'm not."
He: "YES, you are!"
Me: "I think I would know my own name. It's Lisa, not Sharon."
He: "But you've got long, dark hair."
Me: "Yes, so do a lot of people." And I walked away.
