The Famous Mike Hunt Story

[NetShrine]

Buzz started this - don't blame me.

Years ago, I worked in an HR Dept for a Major Bank in NYC. We had a service center in Nashville that handled our employee Savings Plan.

My contact in the call center was a good guy - we became quick friends after a short while.

One day, I called him - and said:

"Listen, I need you to handle this one personally. I have a plan participant that has issues. I didn't get all the facts - I don't even have his SSN - just his name and phone number. Would you call him at his brother's store, and find out what his problem is - and then help him?"

Now, keep in mind, this was my job (to lead him) and his job (to help me) - so, he said "sure - without a doubt."

I gave him the name and number - - "Mike Hunt, 212-XXX-XXXX" Now, the number was for the Pink Pussycat Boutique in the Village (NYC) which was somewhat of a sex-stuff shop.

I found out from his co-workers later that it went down like this:

He called, and a female sales rep answered. He said: "I'm trying to get in touch with Mike Hunt." The rep answers "What?" So, he says it again - "I'm trying to get in touch with Mike Hunt." The girl snapped back "What!?" So, like the good worker he was - he states again "I'm trying to get in touch with Mike Hunt."

The girls screams back at him: "Listen, I touch my own bleeping bleep every damn day. Why are you having such a problem?" And then she slammed down the phone.

To this day, it's one of the Top Ten work pranks that I ever pulled. It was legendary at the bank for a long time............

Newhart and Postman? I'm just guessing - I don't know who Bob and Tom are! Sounds like fun 'tho.

That's great, Net, and I have a feeling you'd love Bob and Tom, they are an absolute riot sometimes.

They did this one prank on a carpet cleaning telemarketer that called them...they were acting all paraniod on the phone saying "Yes, we'd love to have you come and clean the carpet, but you have to get here right away!" and then they went on to ask "Does your cleaner get out blood stains? Deep blood stains? Can you also do the upholstry, too? Though it should be a little easier to get the blood out of than the carpet, it's still a little tacky." The telemarketer was starting to panic a little, but they didn't let up..."Can the serviceman you send be very discreet? And could he do us a favor and put a large garbage bag in the back of his van and drive it to another town and dispose of it for us? Our pickup isn't until next Monday and we're already over our limit for the week." The telemarketer quickly hung up the phone...it was so funny. :)

Yeah Jen, That's a good one also..
I'm a huge Bob and Tom Fan..
Too many favorite's to list..
Most of their recorded stuff is on Napster but I listen to them every morning from when they come on here @ 6:00AM till I get home..
I Used to pick them up on-line till all the legal bullshit shut down all of the streaming audio feed's.
That sucks cause their show out of Indy last till 11:00AM , EST..and WOCT, Baltimore only carries them till 9:00...:(

I forget the exact reason a pay back was needed, but in retaliation for some prank, the original victim of an office prant noticed on the prankster's calendar that he had an upcoming doctor's visit. The victim's wife called the prankster and acted like the doctor's secretary. She told the prankster to bring a stool sample with him for his visit.

Imagine the doctor's surprise when the guy showed up. This is my all-time favorite.

That's why I'm so implusive.

Patience usually comes with a bag of shit.
