Awkward phone call of the day 7/29/09

First, I'd like to say that somehow that last post happened all on it's own. I was going to fix it, but I feel like it's more awkward this way.

Second, I already have another awkward phone call of the day, and I've only been here for an hour and a half this morning.

me: Budget and Asset Management, this is Emily. (I got it out this time!)
man on phone: Hi, will you have K call me when she gets off the phone.
me: She's not on the phone, would you like to speak to her?
m.o.p.: Sure, I'll call her.

30 seconds later...

me: Budget and Asset Management, this is Emily.
m.o.p.: She must still be on the phone. It's not going through. Will you have her call me?
me: Sure....
*m.o.p. starts to hang up*
me: Oh wait! Can... I tell....her....who you are? ( I was really caught off guard and this came out really weird!)
m.o.p.: It's J.
*hangs up*
