    Received from another list.

    My apologies to those with a slow connection, but this begs to be put on
    this list.

    Enjoy

    RE: Pizza Hut Order

    Operator:

    "Thank you for calling Pizza Hut. May I have your..."

    Customer:

    "Hi, I'd like to order."

    Operator:

    "May I have your NIDN first, sir?"

    Customer:

    "My National ID Number, yeah, hold on, eh,
    it's 6102049998-45-54610."

    Operator:

    "Thank you, Mr. Sheehan. I see you live at 1742 Meadowland Drive, and the
    phone number's 494-2366.

    Your office number over at Lincoln Insurance is
    745-2302 and your cell number's 266-2566.

    Which number are you calling from, sir?"

    Customer:

    "Huh? I'm at home. Where d'ya get all this information?"

    Operator: "We're wired into the system, sir."

    Customer:

    (Sighs) "Oh, well, I'd like to order
    a couple of your All-Meat Special pizzas..."

    Operator:

    "I don't think that's a good idea, sir."

    Customer:

    "Whaddya mean?"

    Operator:

    "Sir, your medical records indicate that you've got
    very high blood pressure and extremely high cholesterol.
    Your National Health Care provider won't allow
    such an unhealthy choice."

    Customer:

    "Damn. What do you recommend, then?"

    Operator:

    "You might try our low-fat Soybean
    Yogurt Pizza. I'm sure you'll like it"

    Customer:

    "What makes you think I'd like something like that?"

    Operator:

    "Well, you checked out 'Gourmet Soybean Recipes' from your local library
    last week, sir.

    That's why I made the suggestion."

    Customer:

    "All right, all right. Give me two family-sized ones, then.

    What's the damage?"

    Operator:

    "That should be plenty for you, your wife and your four kids, sir.

    The 'damage,' as you put it, heh, heh, comes $49.99."

    Customer:

    "Lemme give you my credit card number."

    Operator:

    "I'm sorry sir, but I'm afraid you'll have to pay in cash.

    Your credit card balance is over its limit."

    Customer:

    "I'll run over to the ATM and get some cash before your driver gets
    here."

    Operator:

    "That won't work either, sir. Your checking account's overdrawn."

    Customer:

    "Never mind. Just send the pizzas.

    I'll have the cash ready. How long will it take?"

    Operator:

    "We're running a little behind, sir. It'll be about 45 minutes, sir.

    If you're in a hurry you might want to pick 'em up while you're out
    getting the cash, but carrying pizzas on a motorcycle can be a little
    awkward."

    Customer:

    "How the hell do you know I'm riding a bike?"

    Operator:

    "It says here you're in arrears on your car payments,
    so your car got repo'ed.

    But your Harley's paid up, so I just assumed
    that you'd be using it."

    Customer:

    "@#%/$@&?#!"

    Operator:

    "I'd advise watching your language, sir.

    You've already got a July 2006 conviction for
    cussing out a cop."

    Customer:

    (Speechless)

    Operator:

    "Will there be anything else, sir?"

    Customer:

    "No, nothing.

    Oh, yeah, don't forget the two free liters of Coke
    your ad says I get with the pizzas."

    Operator:

    "I'm sorry sir, but our ad's exclusionary clause prevents us from
    offering free soda to diabetics."
