Anti Joke

Today, a guy called customer support, claiming his internet wasn't working. I asked for his customer details, and he gave his name as Mike Hunt. I recognized the old joke, called him an idiot, and hung up on him. It turned out that was his real name. I'm now on suspension. FML

I'd like to see what happens when you get calls from Mike Hawk, Mike Litoris, and Harry Nuzzak.

I guess that's what you get for treating Mike Hunt like crap.

Well if it was clean it would get better treatment

I've had a few pranks. Sometimes you just have to say something. But, you jumped the gun on this one.

When I was younger, my mother told me the most embarrassing thing she did at work in Brazil: she was working at an office back then, and she got a memo that a man named Girafaldo (yes, like the giraffe) was coming to see her to discuss some documents. She got mad at them for making a bad joke, and got back to work. An hour later, someone knocked on her door and, as she opened it, she was greeted by a very tall man who simply said "good morning mrs ____, I'm Girafaldo"; she immediately closed the door and started laughing like crazy, and only opened again when she had calmed down a bit. After apologizing profusely to the man, he grumbled "don't worry, it happens all the time". Some names just bring the worst of us!

no joke, I dated a michael hunt who went by mike....

You should have just said, "Okay so Mike H." Rather than jumping to conclusions.

Makes me think of this NAW story: Me: “Thank you for calling [hotel], this is John speaking, how can I help you? Caller: “I’m trying to get in contact with Mike Hunt.” (I check the guest list to make sure we don’t actually have a Michael Hunt staying with us.) Me: “Yes, Mr. Hunt is sharing a room with I.P. Freely, and he asked me to give you a message: he said to not call here again until you can come up with something a little more original, you pathetic losers.” Caller: *hangs up* ----- You should've at least checked if there really was a Mike Hunt before hanging up.

Seeing as that could easily be someone's name, you're an idiot for jumping to that kind of conclusion. YDI

Always consider it the real name...not a fake one...if they are calling it just seems reasonable...
