That's one way to handle it

In my office building, there is a mobile auto detailing service. I've never used them, but my poor Pathfinder is looking so beat up right now that I am thinking about having them clean her up so I don't feel like a schmuck driving around with all that dirt on it. Now that it's stopped raining for a day or two, I feel like it might be worth it. Actually, even if the rain comes back, it could just use a cleaning -- can't be neglecting the paint like that!

So I took note of the detailer's phone number as I drove into the parking garage today and just called. It's a little early, so I figured I'd get voice mail or something. And I did. What's funny is, the automated voice mail went something like this: "You've reached the voice mail of [dude says his own name]. This mailbox is full. Please hang up."

PLEASE HANG UP?!

Is that any way to do business? It was so stupid I couldn't even be mad -- I just laughed.

And hung up.

Please hang up? Screw them. They should be kissing your beanbag.

Yeah, that's really weird. I guess he won't be getting your business.

One or two things... Either he's getting WAY too much business (which is a very good thing...) OR....he can't afford a voice mail that provides more than ten messages at a time. (Bad sign)

Peachy: Nope -- I'm going somewhere else tomorrow.

Deb: He needs a new voice mail provider!

Addict: Now, on a HOME phone, this would be funny!
