and the saga continues...

If you recall from yesterday I had put in my blog about a co-worker in the plant coming in to ask me not to page her for calls from a certain lady (she claims is an ex-girlfriend of her husband) However, being a receptionist I've started to recognize certain calls to certain employees. Let me explain further....

I recall this "lady" calling a few days ago, not once was the tone of voice, background noise, etc, anything remotely related too a bitter ex harassing a current wife. But who am I to judge I've never been in this situation. So guess what, the "lady" just called, she explained to me that the co-worker has to call her at this number before noon because its an important matter regarding her account.

Now back to my experience as a receptionist....these calls are usually collection agencies its the same sort of background noise from those call centres, not to mention she was extremely polite to me but firm in trying to get the point across of how important it is that the call be returned.

I'm so confused, either the co-worker is a complete slacker and is lying to avoid paying her bills OR the ex "lady" is really good at harassing someone cause I would never think that this nice voice on the phone is capable of being a part of such acts!! Either way I'll keep you posted how this plays out.

Maybe the ex-gfriend works for a collection agency and is trying to ruin their credit....ooooohhh, now there's a phone call you don't want to answer.
