Terry
Sir, per your explicit instructions I offer the following for your enjoyment...

Terry called me and left a message when they were in town the other day. Instead of hitting the "voicemail" button to listen to the message I hit the talk button.

Person answering phone: "Hello"

Me: (thinking: crap I pushed the wrong button!) "Uhh hello, someone just called me from this number but I don't know who it was, who is this please?"

Person on the other end of the line: "This is Nancy Andreasen."

Me: ~thinking to myself...OH S***. "Hello Ma'am, my name is Lorene and I believe Terry just left me a message." ~praying for a black hole to swallow me now~

Terry had a good laugh at my expense once I explained...

LOL, Gypsy.

(It's nice to know that I'm not the only one who has problems with their phone...)

Don't you just love those teeny little buttons when you don't have your reading glasses on?

Missed opportunity. Should have gone all sexy and asked to speak to your little "Rotor-head". LOL

LOL while that might be my normal type of recovery response had I spoken to either of them before...I was frankly too intimidated!

Edit: 'sides...I actually do have one of 'those' voices....she might have even believed me.

Had a boss of mine answer his phone, while I was in his office, on the "Speaker" and it was his wife. The conversation headed downhill and he picked up the handset. After a somewhat heated discussion, he hung up and muttered that F*ing B*ch !! The phone answered back "WHAT THE F* DID YOU SAY !!!" It was one of those priceless moments !! Our phones, when placed in "Speaker Mode" will revert back to it after you hang up if it was initiated before you picked up the handset.
