I've recently gotten a job working at a call center, explaining people's 401k plans to them.

People are very funny. Funny ha-ha, also funny peculiar. My best call ever was as follows. Nothing has been deleted or added to this dialogue, which occurred on November 18 1998 at about 5:30 PM.

The phone rings.
ME: "Good afternoon, this is (my full name) on a recorded line. How may I help you?"
VOICE: "What is three divided by 95?"
(Pause.) ME: "0.031578947368."
VOICE: "What is three times 95?"
ME: "285."
(Pause.) VOICE: "Three, times what, is 95?"
ME: "95 divided by 3 is 31 and two thirds."
VOICE: "Thanks." Hangs up

Voice, if you're out there, I'd just like to say that there are better ways to do your homework than calling up the friendly customer service representative at a financial institution.
