When I worked at a radio station we used to get calls for Sears repair service all the time. Me: Good Morning, WJHU. Caller: Is this Sears? Me: Nope, it's a radio station. Caller: Well my washer stopped working. Me: Can't help you, this is a radio station. Everyonce and a while I took parts orders. It was easier than trying to convince them they dialed wrong. I also used to get calls for Doreen (prounce DOUGH-REEENE). Me: (sleepily, its 2 AM) Caller: Let me speek to Doreen. Me: Doreen says she don't want to talk to you no more. We're going back to bed now, so don't you call again.
