As I rarely have private phone calls I normally pick up with "Good morning *company name* ThatOddOne speaking. How can I help?"

"Wing Wong Foo's Chinse Restaurant, may I take your order please?"

Sooner or later, it's going to upset someone.

Shh! I said don’t call, they might be listening. Look, Shifty did the deal but it went bad, we managed to ‘get rid’ of the guy, if you know what I mean, so no worries.

Wait, who is this??

As per the general purpose social script.

Me: Hello, X speaking.

Them : Hello, this Y

Me : How are you ?

Them : Fine thanks. And you ?

Me : Fine thanks.

pause

Them : I wanted to say...blah blah blah.

My friend Bob is more direct.

Bob answers phone.

Bob : "This is Bob. What do you want ?"

Bob cuts out all the other nonsense and gets straight to the point.

We need more Bobs

More and more now if I don't recognise the number I open with:

"Hello... Is this a sales or research call?"

Saves time.

If it’s a really close mate… it’ll be something like

“Alright knobhead” or “about time you called, wanker”

If it's a random number I suspect to be a cold caller, I answer: Revenue and customs fraud prevention, Sally speaking, can I take your name please?
