A woman has just dialed my telephone number, and when I answered with my name she said:
"What did you say?"
I said: "Andy Curtis - that's my name, can I help you?"
She said: "OK, I've dialed the wrong number - I'm very busy you know - I wish people like you didn't have numbers so jolly* near to the one I'm trying to dial. It wastes my time."
...SLAMM!
I'd love to know which minority grouping has, as its sole identifying characteristic "phone numbers that are quite near to ones that people actually meant to dial". Whatever that grouping is, I'm definitely one of them.
Honestly - people like me.
