How do you answer your phone (when looking for a new gig)?

"Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaasssssssuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu uuuuuup"

I'm currently on a "Tankard O'Terror". Is the best I can get!

I've got one of those!

I think the 5 man new one and ToC (5 man HC) have upgrades to my naxx ones which are sooooo 3 seasons ago...

I haven't got time to raid these days (unless I get benched any time soon) so just PVP for me

How do you answer your phone when pimps phone you up? Do you just say “hello?” or do you put on your best secretarial voice and answer with “MyLtdCo – how can I help?”

I've always wanted to try "DS Jones, Metropolitan Police speaking, who may I ask is calling ?" and count the seconds in the long following pause.

Probably best to try when actually in a gig though.

Hello, Cojak speaking.

Clipped and business-like. It's automatic, I've started phone calls from Mr C that way too...

I got hung up on by a blocked phone number that just called me up. I am looking for a new gig at the moment so it can only have been a pimp that decided they didn’t like the way I said “hello” when answering my own phone.

"Ni hao ma. You want chi or fwy?"

"Hello, can I speak to threaded?"

"No, this chinky, you want chi or fwy?"

"Is this the correct number for threaded?"

"No, no threaded here, this chinky, you want chi or fwy? You no p1ss about, chi or fwy?"

the time it takes me to hear my phone, reach into my pocket, take it out of its leather pouch and press the answer key is the EXACT time it takes for the phone to divert to voicemail.

Dunno if that is a good thing or bad, if its important they leave a message - in fact I've had quite a few this week from pimps - all for permie roles or contract to perm roles.

There is a setting on the phone to ring two more times before diverting but it didn't seem to work - is this an Orange network setting?

I say 'hello my references are'....tell them and then they can hang up as they have got what they wanted

So true
