Sigh... why me.

So this morning was the day before the Easter break, and wouldn't you know it, I got a phone call that I thought would be just right for Not Always Right. I'd call it...
When did anger become a point of view?
(from a business in Melbourne, Australia)
(I'd just come into work and put my things down when the phone rings. I pick it up).
Me: “Good morning, [company name]. This is [name] speaking.”
Guy: *yelling* “Yeah, can I speak to [name], please?”
Me: *recoiling out of earshot a little* “I’m sorry, we don’t have anyone by that name here.”
Guy: *still yelling* “Really? What about [name], then?”
Me: “Er, he doesn’t work here either. I fear you might have rang the wrong number.”
Guy: *suddenly angry* “I didn’t ring the wrong number! You rang the wrong number!” *hangs up*
What a fantastic start to the day...
