Boss had me in hysterics today......
Was in the garage office this morning when my boss answered the phone......heard him say " who am i speaking to" after a couple of seconds.
Then he says " Everest..................what..the fucking mountain!!!!!! "
A quality reply to the sales people on the other end of the line and cracked me up !!!!!
Anyone else got any good replys to these pesky callers who call up offering free kitchens or conservatorys or the like ?

just finding my feet
not quite the same but the local cab office a few years ago has a similer number to my old mans,,,, he went on like dads do and got them to change there number as hes had it longer blah blag blag
anyway a few months after he got woke up at 3am by some rude prick demanding a cab in a rude way,,,,, my old man then took his details and said one will be with him but wont meet him there but will meet him at canonbury square due to the one way system and will be a 30 min wait,,,,,,
imagine waiting for 30 mins then call back to find they never got the call

We have a guy in our office who constantly takes the piss out of customers on the phone, but does it expertly and subtlely so that they don't realise. Earlier this week we had a customer on the phone called Mr Seaman. Good ol Ray picks up the phone, chats to him for a few mins, but I counted three "ahoy there" and 1 "me old hearty" in the conversation Customer never picked up on it

my usual response "I've got more phones that i know what to do with...do you want to buy some?"
gets rid of em usually

My old man once arranged for someone to come out and quote for a new patio as the company had been bugging him for weeks. They will have had a shock when they pulled up outside his building as its a Multi Storey flat and he lives on the 13th floor! Needless to say they didnt knock on the door!

i've had countless calls from people trying to get me a better deal on phone calls to india recently, the thing is, they natter away for like 5 minutes before you get a chance to get a word in and then i say "sorry, could you repeat that please"
and then i tell them it's a business line
and they hang up
got a call from a woman about putting an ad into yellow pages for dojj motorsport and i was seriously considering it as she said it would be free, but i told her th etax man was after me for unpaid company car tax and she said she'd send me some paperwork instead as the call was being recorded
poor cow
