I²S is, err, fun. What is I²S Well, first off, it is grammatically like I²C which is an acronym with two Is in it which people then treat an...

I'm still laughing now.
ReplyDeleteHe really is!
DeleteNow he is laughing at the picture of himself laughing. I suggest http://dilbert.com/strips/comic/2014-08-13/ is appropriate.
DeleteSomewhere out there is an *actual* John Doe wondering why nobody ever calls him.
ReplyDeleteAlmost as good as the consultancy in Cambridge with a fake "Guybrush Threepwood" employee on LinkedIn (Specialties: Thievery, Sword Mastery, Treasure Hunter-y). They get calls from recruiters asking for him...
ReplyDeleteFor a long time, my brother was plagued with calls asking for a particular foreign name. Whoever it was, they often got quite exercised about their need to contact whoever that person was! Eventually, he got a new number (useful side effect of switching telcos without porting) which fixed the problem.
ReplyDeleteSince it had been a new BT line with a new number, he had no idea who that person was: presumably they'd been the previous user of that number. Whoever kept calling just wouldn't accept that there was nobody of that name living there, though!

I just pass people on to my colleague, David Evnull - he never seems to answer the phone but you can leave a message which will be e-mailed to him, or just send him an e-mail directly - our mail format is first initial then surname @...
ReplyDeleteAh Alex you appear to employ the brother of our colleague "Bob Slidel" (if you've seen office space...) ...intentionally misspelt surname of course
ReplyDeleteYou should think yourselves lucky they didn't keep calling for other members of the Doe family. Hopefully they had a "Doh!" moment after this...
