Getting To Know Your Family …

So I just called up my sister at her work. She works for an eye doctor and sometimes switches between two offices. The first one I called was the main office that she works at for most of the week, figuring that if she wasn’t there they’d give me the number to the other one. Usually when I call, she’s the one that picks up … so the call went like this:

Her: Doctor’s office, can I help you?
Me: Hi
Her: Hi, can I help you?
Me: Yeah, this is Greg
Her: And your last name?
Me: Um … the same as yours.
Her: Um. (brief silence) Oooooooooooh … this isn’t your sister.
Me: Erm.
Her: Everyone says we sound alike though, she’s in the other office today.
Me: Erm.
Her: Yeah, so here’s the number. Thank God I figured out that it was you because you were starting to freak me the hell out.
Me: Erm.

So, that was my stupid moment of the day. I swear to God, they sound identical on the phone. I guess next time I’ll ask whom I’m talking to first. Ugh.
