What does the outgoing message on your answering machine say ?
Extra Credit Question :
Do you use the same message on your cell phone ?
Bonus Question:
What is the funniest one you have ever used or heard ?
Mine is just the pre-recorded one that came on the machine. My cell phone is set up the same.
I did have a friend who had a cute message on their cell phone, but has since changed it, so lets see if I remember. It went along the lines of
"You have reached T----. Please leave a message after the beep. I am not responsible for the condition of messages left. There is no gaurantee that you will get your message back. If you would like your message back please enclose a self addressed stamped envelope and I will return your message in the same condition that it was left."
I have another friend who's cell phone message was....
"Hi you've reached K--. Leave a message because I just can't be bothered to pick up the phone. I will call you back when I feel like talking to you."
My friends are constantly changing their messages to funny ones, but I'm just too darn lazy.
We use the normal, "you have reached...we aren't home right now, please leave a message." Simple and boring.
Cell phone is just hubby saying you have reached him, leave a message. We never use the cell. It's basically so his employee's can reach him(company pays for it).
Back in the day we used to record some favorite lines off of some of our favorite tv shows for our messages. We thought it was "cool"...Good times, good times...
As a diehard Wisconsinite, I'm all over National Bratwurst Day!
I simply tell them who they have reached and to leave a message, that I’ll return their call.
However I knew someone who had a message greeting on their answering machine that stated ~ “hello,,,,, helloo,,,,,,,, helloooooo,,,,,, I can’t hear you! Hellooooo!” Talk about a dog chasing it’s tail calling the nut, hanging up and retrying again and again before giving up.
