RE: Weirdo Enquirers, Sane Respondents


yeah I know what you meant Tim
but it made me chuckle some.

When I answer the phone at
work I usually just say my name
but if I'm at another phone I answer
with the name of the group I work in
ie.  "Hello Weed Science"
It is just amazing how many people hear
that, snigger and say
"weird science??"

so I guess I'm fully qualified to answer weird enquiries
the switchboard operators also feel this is true
as I tend to get a lot of weird enquiries from them also.

Cheers, Rod
