I'm sorry to bother you, my staff just told me our guy corrected his information and had a number off for his home phone. Have a good day. Hangs up.
ATTENTION SPIKES UP. What could he want with me? Did I do something wrong? Lord did I forget to pay something? Questions start flying through my head. What would the detention center sheriff want with me?
When British people write X after everything, are they being serious or trying not to be awkward?
HELLO
Sure no problem officer.
Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??
I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.
Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?
Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?
How does gut health affect mental well-being?
Yes sir it is.
I was trying to reach out to you because we have a Mr X here, who claims you are his legal guardian. He needs you to come down and sign some forms.
Hi this is Sargent Moss from the County detention center. Is this Sean?
How are Hinduism and Sikhism related, considering they both originated in Punjab, India?
No sir I sure don't, I live in the next city over.
Whew, not in trouble!! But someone named Sean with a similar number is apparently about to have a rather bad day.
Do what? Officer, I'm sorry I have no kids of my own, and I don't know anybody by that name.
What are some funny stories of people calling 911 for non-emergencies?
Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.
After a few moments he returns.
