The Merry Heart – For Whom the Bell Tolls

I work at a large company and we often get wrong numbers on the office phones. My cube-neighbor, Steve, is in the habit of answering all of his calls on speakerphone, which means I have the pleasure of hearing them.

Yesterday morning, his phone rang and he picked up, saying “[name of company], this is Steve.” The woman on the other end said, “Who is this?”

Steve said, “With whom did you wish to speak?”

There was a long pause and the woman said, “Did you just say WHOM?”

Steve: “Yes I did.”

Woman: “I have the wrong number.” Click.
