When a LOW voice is a HIGH function...

The phone rang, so I answered it. The conversation is as follows;

Me: Hello?
Caller: Hi. Can I speak to a person by the name of (Dad's name: censored for protection)?
Me: Erm, sorry, but he's not in at the moment.
Caller: Oh, okay. Thank you, sir. (Closed line)



'Sir'.

I was addressed as 'Sir' on the phone.

:)

Sweet, isn't it? But this wasn't the first time. Oh, no it wasn't. A year ago, there was a guy from a finance company who wanted to do a random servey and by some chance dialled our number.

Me: Hello?
Caller2: Good afternoon, sir. I'm from (Company: Censored for protection). Could you spare a few minutes for this survey, please?
Me: Erm, okay.
Caller2: Firstly, what occupation do you have?
Me: Erm, student.
Caller2: Wow. So young? How old are you?
Me: Er, 12.
Caller2: Oh...
(Pause for a few seconds)
Me: Would you like to talk to my Dad?
Caller: (sigh of relief) Yes, please.

Hahahahaha! Oh, and don't forget the time when a travel agency tried to cold call my house...

Me: Hello?
Caller3: Hi, sir! We're from (Company: censored for protection). Are you the man of the house? And if so, would you like to sign up for one of our holiday packages?
Me: Sorry, but I think you're reffering to my Dad. Let me...
Caller3: Oh! So you're the son! So should I make a registration for two family packages?
Me: Erh, hold on, please... (Passed the phone to my Mom)

Uahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!! She...giggle...she actually thought I had a family of my own!!! A-hahahahahaha!!! That's, like... ahaha... that's just so hilarious!!!


~After 5 minutes of laughter...


...hahahaha, ha, ha, ha, erm, ha. Sigh (Wipes tears from eye), that was smashing, I tell ya. Hmm hmm hmm. Smashing. Ah...

Anyway, the holidays are flowing away really fast so I thought I ought to make a list of what I've done, am doing and planning to do while I still can so I can see how my days here are going to be spent. Let's see what we've got so far...
