Public cell phone solution! :)

[John Schmidt]

After a very busy day, a commuter settled down in her seat and closed her eyes as the train departed Chicago for Detroit.
As the train rolled out of the station, the guy sitting next to her pulled out his cell phone and started talking in a loud voice: "Hi sweetheart it's Eric, I'm on the train - yes, I know it's the six thirty and not the four thirty but I had a long meeting - no, honey, not with that floozie from the accounts office, with the boss. No sweetheart, you're the only one in my life - yes, I'm sure, cross my heart" etc., etc.
Fifteen minutes later he was still talking loudly , when the young woman sitting next to him, who was obviously angered by his continuous diatribe, yelled at the top of her voice:
"Hey, Eric, turn that stupid phone off and come back to bed!"
===============================
Love to have been a fly on the wall when he got home!

   Good'un John.

Many years ago I was working in a bike/ toy shop. It was near Christmas and we were working overtime. Willard, one of the guys, made the mistake of calling his wife from the store phone where we we were all working.

As soon as he said "Rosie, I'm working late," we turned up the radio, started talking very loud, rang the cash register a couple of time (yes, it had a bell back then) and I spoke up and told Willard to get off the phone as it was his turn to buy the drinks..............He wanted to kill us.

"Hey, Eric, turn that stupid phone off and come back to bed!"    "Willard...get off the phone...
it (is)... (your) turn to buy the drinks.............." 
These are both hilarious!

Just to add to all this; a buddy of mine a number of years ago was always getting stuck on the phone...often by his mother. Sweet lady but very domineering. He finally rigged up a push button near the phone that would ring his doorbell....this was in the days before cordless phones. The idea being she would hear the doorbell and hang up, which she usually did. She came to visit once while I was there and answered the phone while he was in the bathroom. As a result, she got stuck with a sales call and was going bonkers so just as he walked into the room, she reached over and pressed the button. You should have seen the look on his face, while I was rolling on the floor laughing. Moral of the story....don't try to fool mom, she already knows all the tricks.

I always just wait until I am talking and then hang up in the middle of a sentence. I call them back and ask if they hung up on me? "No" is the answer, then I just say, "OK. I'll talk to you later."

MARKETEER: "Hello; Could I speak to Pantox Gemoz? ME: Yes, what is so wrong?
MARKETEER: Mr. Grimex... nothing is wrong... we are in your neighborhood today talking to folks about investment opportunities... 
ME: Well, that is very wrong. We are illegal aliens on the run!   MARKETEER: Oh, have a good day! ???

Back at InZane II or III, in Zanesville OH, one evening, Paul (Hoosier Daddy) was making the 'required' call home to the wife...  His wife thought that the VRCC gatherings were just like Sturgis...  Naked & loose women, out of control drinking, yada, yada, yada  ...  Paul had all he could do to convince her otherwise  ...  Just when he was in to his third or fourth 'yes dear', a buncha us started whisteling and yelling 'SHOW US YOUR T!T$ 

Needless to say, he was not too pleased with us

I remember a company that sold tape recordings of different background noise that you could play in a phone booth when calling home to prove you were still working.
