Wrong Number
A number of years back my friend Egan started getting a lot of weird calls for Sandy’s Electronics. People would call him up asking for the price on some fuck nut capacitor and he generally just told them they had the wrong number. Turns out the new Yellow Pages was published and they swapped a couple of the numbers around and accidentally printed his number. So, he decided to have some fun with it and began answering the phone as Sandy’s Electronics. People would call, ask for a price, he’d say he was going to go do a price check and would never come back. Cracked my ass up! That is until the day Sandy’s actually called to offer him $100 and the opportunity to get a new phone number for free. So he got a new phone number and all was well and good.
I’m reminded of that story because I read this story today about a girl who got a new cell phone and it turns out the number she got used to be comedian Chris Rock’s! Definitely worth a read through.
