| today i got back to my office to find that i had three missed calls from an unknown number on my work cell phone. they didn't leave a message so i didn't call them back. a few minutes later, i received a call from the same number. it went something like this:
me: hello?
guy: my god. you finally fucking picked up your phone.
me: excuse me?
guy: dead silence
me: who is this?
guy: is diane there?
me: i think you have the wrong number.
guy: dead silence again...click.
me: shock followed by hysterical laughter.
a few minutes later, my phone rings again. same number. same guy. this time our conversation went like this:
guy: i called you a few minutes ago.
me: yeah.
guy: i am so sorry. i have to apologize for talking to you like that. i thought you were my buddy i've been trying to get a hold of.
me: really, it's ok. no big deal.
guy: no. i don't think you know how sorry i am. when i realized that you weren't who i thought you were, i was caught off guard, so i hung up on you. i'm sorry for that too.
me: not a problem. thanks for calling to apologize. i appreciate it.
guy: i am such a moron. have a good day.
me: you too. bye. again- shock followed by hysterical laughter.
my favorite part is that he probably sat there shocked and laughing at himself before he called me back five minutes later. i guess it just goes to show you that people really are nicer than we give them credit for. i mean, he didn't have to call back to apologize...
