Apparently, I sound like a "David"

[themissingy]

The phone rings.

Me: Hello.
Some Guy: David. (affirmative tone)
Me: So?
Some Guy: Is it David?
Me: no.
Some Guy: Can I speak to David?
Me: (deciding to show a little politeness) -- no, I think you got the wrong number

So, it would be a perfectly normal wrong-number conversation if it wasn't for "are you David" bit. I mean... I have a low voice, but "David

one of the reasons I hate phones :) you don't sound like a David in real life

by comparison I don't think I sound too much like a Karen or Kelly or something of the sort I was called a few months back, but still...

and remember this? people have braindead days sometimes...

me: ... B as in boy...
support person: G as in George?
me: B as in boy
support person: G as in George?
me: no, no, B as in Boy
support person: ooooh, B as in George!

if it helps you any - I've spent all mornings turning all keys the wrong way (no idea why), one of our star programmers... well, I don't remember what he did but it was uncharacteristically silly, and everybody's just been really out of it lately :)

so anyway, the moral is - the voice is good. so's the singing, even if you don't do it particularly often :)
