My co-worker and I called MCI. Hit the speakerphone and waited. Once we got somebody, we didn't answer when they picked up. The lady was about to hang up til my co-worker said "Wait!" I asked "Shelia" b.s. questions to keep her busy. Most of her answers consisted of pauses because she was imcompetent in her knowledge. What is considered long distance? How far is it from here to California? What are your competitors' rates? Are Canada and Mexico considered long distance? How long would it cost to make a call to Australia or the U.K., and what would the price be in foreign currency? Do I have long distance capabilities? I'm sorry, why did I say I'd be right back? Are any of your locations outside the U.S.?

I finally asked her the most simple question- "What does MCI stand for? I've always wondered that."

*pause*

*click*

She hung up on us. So, our plan was for my co-worker to call back.

Co-worker calls back and gets on the line with "Bill."

"Yes, my co-worker is in the bathroom crying because she was just on the phone with Shelia from MCI and she asked Shelia what MCI stands for, and Shelia hung up on her."

Bill was very competent. He told us it is illegal for them to hang up on anybody, and it wasn't right. He also told us what MCI meant.

My co-worker went on to say, "I'm writing a report for school and I was wondering if I could use you in my report. Can I send you the report when I'm done?"

He said yes, and yes, and went to get an address for her to send the 'report' to. The address was a Canadian address, purely conflicting with what Shelia said about non-international locations. Bill had let out a big laugh, but I think my co-worker convinced him that we were for real. Even though we weren't. lol

Bill asked my co-worker's name. She made up a name, 'Rene,' and said she was in the ninth grade She told him, "I hope I'll get an A; I really think I will!"

When they were about to hang up, Bill asked "Why was your friend crying again?" She explained it to him and all was well.

My co-worker still plans to send the bogus report... Those were some good laughs...!

When I worked for McDonald's in High school, we used to call the drive thru phone, from the managers office, to get one of the girls to see if Mike Hunt was in the lobby. He was needed for a family emergency of one sort or another. Invariably they would go out into the lobby trying to find Mike Hunt. Hilarity ensued.

Some of my favs...

Ask for:
Stuppie asole
Harry Nuts


But the best one(s) ever....

When I worked for the local newpaper as an ad composer we had close working relations with the sales team...The sales manager became fond of my work so we conversed often on how to market her clients etc. Anyway we became good friends and played pranks on each other all of the time..
One day she was out on some calls and I went to the receptionist and got a missed call slip... "Please call Myra Maines at" then gave the number...
When she got back she got the message and called the number back... The number I gave was to a local funeral home and she asked for Myra Maines... After 3 times of requesting to speak to Myra Maines she caught on and was soooo embarased and started apologizing to them explaining what has happened to her...
My supervisor found out and was scalding me for this prank it turns out the funeral home was one of her clients... I AM ROLLING while I find this out and getting chewed out... Of course the supervisor was laughing at me for laughing so hard too. They had to punish me even though the Sales manager asked them not to...So I got wrote up... 2 days later, she called on the funeral home and was embarssed to talk to them BUT turns out it was the best prank they had heard and loved the creativity behind it...They signed a year contract with her and requested that I be in charge of the design. I refused unless my company tore up the write up that I had recieved over it...So they did plus gave me a raise... Phew that was a close one!

Later same Parent company to the newspaper same sales manager:
On april fools the Sister Company an internet provider in the same building was short handed for help desk "AKA Tech Support" so I was helping to cover for them. It was slow so I called the operator to our comany and asked her to send me to the Newspaper sales managers office... "The operator knew who it was" Figured I was pranking her so she did... When the sales manager picked up I disquised my voice and pretended like I got her name and number from a personal ad in the paper...
She did not recognize me so she tried to tell me I was mistaking. I continued to describe her profile "as listed in the paper" from hair & eye color to her height and her likes and dislikes. Then when she gracefully and professionally continued to try to explain that there was some mistake she did not have an ad in the paper...I became a little irrate and said that I don't like to be teased and I thought we would make a nice couple...
I could tell she got nervous by the umm's and uhh's. So I cooled off and played on some more calming her down then I couldn't take it any longer and busted up laughing... She recognized my laugh and with a sigh of relief busted up too...
By the end of our conversation a crowd of about 10-12 people had gathered around my desk to listen in. The poor other tech that I was suppose to be helping didn't have much help the rest of the afternoon because I ended up pulling this same prank for almost everyone in the 2 offices on thier friends, family, and spouses. The other tech was laughing so hard "especially when I called her husband" that she did not care at all.

PS the Boy Friends & husbands were the funniest when a guy calls them telling them that they have a personal ad looking for a single man in the paper... LOL
Of coarse the GF's or spouses was standing next to me listening on speaker phone while I talked on the head set. They would feed me intel "via pen and paper" that no one else would know to make their significant other belive it!

I had laughed so hard that day that when I went home my cheeks and gut HURT so bad that I could not even smile anymore with out bringing tears from the pain...

Myra Maines! LMAO! Thats the funniest prank call I ever heard. I had a friend in High School that had a Roy D. Mercer cassette tape that was full of prank calls. I haven't heard any really funny ones since then. Until now.

Here's another name given by brainless parents. In my area, we have a Harry Beaver. Take a wild guess what he does for a living.

The worst name parents could give their child:

Some of you may be familiar with the famous Hollywood costume designer, 'Edith Head'. Her name appears in the credits of many classic movies. Of course there is nothing wrong with her name, the problem is her poor husband, 'Richard'.
