What’s the weirdest phone call you have ever received?

Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?

No sir I sure don't, I live in the next city over.

Hi this is Sargent Moss from the County detention center. Is this Sean?

After 70 years of the crappiest computers ever made, why does IBM exist?

Sure no problem officer.

HELLO

Why do people have polyamorous relationships?

Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?

Do what? Officer, I'm sorry I have no kids of my own, and I don't know anybody by that name.

Whew, not in trouble!! But someone named Sean with a similar number is apparently about to have a rather bad day.

Why does Microsoft always create so many ugly, confusing, and ridiculous product names? The worst of them all is ".Net" (which is really confusing).

Yes sir it is.

I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.

ATTENTION SPIKES UP. What could he want with me? Did I do something wrong? Lord did I forget to pay something? Questions start flying through my head. What would the detention center sheriff want with me?

Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??

I was trying to reach out to you because we have a Mr X here, who claims you are his legal guardian. He needs you to come down and sign some forms.

I'm sorry to bother you, my staff just told me our guy corrected his information and had a number off for his home phone. Have a good day. Hangs up.

What is a good source for finding job candidates?

Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.

After a few moments he returns.
