I really like these kind of stories.

 

Fair play to him

I could be rich if i can do this

Good, that'll teach 'em. I had a call at my business once saying that my business partner had asked him to call back again a few weeks later. I strung him along for a while and asked him several times if he was sure that J..... had asked him to call again and he insisted that he had. Eventually I had to tell him the sad truth that J..... had died more than two years before. He must have felt stupid.

[John Boy Saint]

I had a double glazing salesman call me one night, saying my wife had said to call when I was home. When I had politely said no he got the ar$e and hung up. I did 1471 and the silly whatsits hadn't blocked their number. So being in sales myself I told him how un professional he was and if I was interested in windows in the future his. Company would be bottom of the list from now on.

 

I also had Mrs Gupta on the phone the night Saints had survived the siege of Elland road last season, I was still buzzing and inebriated having demolished the best part of a bottle of wine while cooking a late dinner. Just as I was about to sit down to eat the phone rang, "Hello this is xxxxx" "bla bla bla, can you go to your computer as you have a virus". I just replied " I don't have a bloody virus, my computer is not bloody switched on, and who's idea was it for you to phone at 9:30 on a Saturday bloody night???!". "tell you what let me speak to your supervisor right now!!!". At which she hung up: diner and the second bottle of wine tasted mighty sweet after that.
