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

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

Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?

Why do companies cull employees during financial downturns without saying so?

HELLO

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

Sure no problem officer.

How do I stop someone from forcing/pestering me to become gay/bisexual when I already want to be straight?

Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??

After a few moments he returns.

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.

Why is porn so addictive?

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

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

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

Trump always acts like he was forced to be president, that he was chosen by God. Why do we put up with this? This maniac can't focus and get his mind off of being asskissed like an emperor.

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?

Yes sir it is.

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

How did you cope when someone you love, dealing with hyper-independence and trauma, felt they needed space to heal alone? Were you able to support them without overstepping, and did you eventually reconnect? How did that journey unfold?

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

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.
