My faux pas... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I was driving home yesterday from Starbucks, and the phone rings. I really shouldn't have answered it, being that I was driving, but I did. I have Caller ID on my cell, and when an "O" appears (I believe it stands for Operator), it's usually a bill collector bugging me (and they do that a lot). I didn't give the person on the other line to answer when I saw an "O," so I was like, "Look, you have some nerve calling at all times of the day...especially when I'm driving! Good day!" then I hung up.

Before I went to bed, I checked my voicemail, and the time of it matched up to when I hung up on the "bill collector." It ended up being Joher calling me to tell me he wanted to answer the questions over the phone, interview style. He sounded so hurt. There was no callback number, so I couldn't get it touch with him ASAP to apologize. I had a hard time sleeping last night because of that. I am definitely about to e-mail him (like he told me to in the message) right away!

I'm going to have to answer those "O" calls regularly...and when it's a bill collector for real, I'm gonna let them have it!

Aww Dee I feel bad it got accidentally fouled up like that...stupid bill collectors. At least he will call again and it'll all work out in the end. Wow what a story. You have a voicemail from Joher! lol

That is SOO cool and exciting to at least know that Joher CALLED you and wanted to talk to you and that he still wants to do the interview with you tho!!

But AWW I'm so sorry that you missed him tho, too bad those stupid bill collectors had to ruin it tho since its usually them. I'm sure Joher will understand tho since you didn't know it was him since he did a surprise call lol! I hope it all works out and that you get to talk to him soon! That is so sweet of him to rather do a more personal interview with you by calling you than just thru email or whatever tho lol! Good luck and hope you get to talk to him soon and let us know how it was to talk to him lol!

Get this. I am a trip.

I sent this long e-mail to Joher yesterday apologizing profusely, and he e-mailed and told me that he hadn't heard me yell at all. He got my voicemail. I still thought he had heard the tail end of it, since I had said "Good day!" sarcastically at the end of the rant, and his v-mail starts out with "You have a great day too!" and he continues with his message.

I was going to e-mail him to tell him that, but I remembered that at the end of my v-mail greeting, I say "...thank you for calling, and have a great day." I was so relieved to find out that I hadn't yelled at him at all, but at dead air. (That was still him that called, but I must not have answered it in time as I thought, and he got my v-mail.)

He decided to keep the questions via e-mail, since I had told him we don't have a home phone...we all have Crickets, and those are not reliable to conduct a phone interview. (And he's keeping his number private, to maintain his privacy.)

Praise the Lord I didn't yell at him!
