Reminds me of someone who was was trying to be helpful but actually dropped me in it.Originally posted by threaded View Post
Secretary to me (with hand over receiver): Can you take this call from so and so.
Me to secretary: can you just tell the caller that you can't reach me, because I am away on holiday, and that I will ring her back on my return.
Secretary to caller: my boss has just told me to tell you that she is uncontactable and will call you when she returns from her holiday.
