Dirty phone calls

More phone amusement: James Hawkins, one of our NHS readers, is worried that the sales people that call him are unhygienic.
“Dell keeps ringing me up wanting to ‘touch base’ with me. I routinely respond by irately asking them ‘Sorry, you want to touch my what?’”
He recommends the embarrassment suffered by the callers trying to explain their error. If only they had told him that they wanted to reach out to him, and maybe they could have had some “face time”. But probably not.
