This is a classic.
This happened while I worked a 9 month stint at a need-to-pay-bills-while-i-find-something-better gig at a contract call center in the US. It was US satellite TV sales disguised as home phone/internet customer service. Sales just isn’t my thing so it wasn’t too enjoyable for me. Anyway, this story cracks me up when I tell it.
Call comes in: account name – mr. Weiner
Me, trying not to lol: hi Mr. Weener, how can i help you today?
Caller: its wine-er
Me, mortified: sorry, how can I help you mr. Wine-er?
Do a thing, call ends.
A few calls later:
Call comes in: account name. Its another mr. Weiner.
Me, so glad I know how to pronounce this name now: hi mr. Wine-er. How can I help?
Caller: its weener
Me: 😐
