Do you have a lady in your car system that tells you how to get to places and also reads your messages out to you?
Isn’t she marvelous?
Ours is Doris… And either she is Scottish and can’t understand my accent, or she thinks I’m Scottish.
After she’s read out my message to me, she very politely asks me..
‘Do you want to reply?’
Then we start…
If she does hear my ‘yes’ and asks me what the message is.. She likes to put her own spin on things in the response.
As a result, my friends, family and associates all think I’m an illiterate half wit.
She is, unfortunately, incapable of hearing the word ‘No’ which I yell out if I don’t want to reply.
‘Do you want to reply to that’
‘No thank you’
‘I’m sorry, I didn’t get that’
‘NO’
‘I’m sorry, do you want to reply to that?’
‘NO‘
‘I’m sorry, I didn’t get that’
‘Oh, stuff off’
OK, it’s sent
