I got a call today from this guy who identified himself as Dan Barton from Woodstock. He asked for the president by his first name, not his last. When I started grilling the guy about what was the nature of his call, etc. he came up with that he has spoken to him before and he was following up on some European shoes, size 42. Now, since my President is European, that was a pretty good strategy. I know the type of caller this is and I have been the "gatekeeper" for a long time. I always google the number to confirm legitamacy. Needless to say, the President isn't getting the message.
Received a today from a guy asking if "Will" was in; I responded by saying Will was in the field and asked to take a message. He said to tell him that Art Brady called rom Mr. Maroschick's office. When I asked what it was about, he said "he knows". I recognize this pattern and immediately wrote down the number from the caller ID. My suspicion that he was a flake was just confirmed by other users of this site.
I LOVE THIS WEBSITE - WHAT A WONDERFULLY USEFUL RESOURCE.
This guy called and asked for Clint and said was expecting his call. I asked my boss and of course the asnwer was "no". He gave the name of Woodstock contruction. This company has called several times. Offered to put him into voice mail, he agrees then just hangs up.
Was getting calls from them, however after they rudely hangup with out leaving a message for the person they are trying to reach, I call back and do the same, only I block my number.. It is so worth the long distance charge...
Claimed to be Dan from Woodstock. Asked for the owner as if they were good friends. He wasn't rude, but would not leave a message; said he would call back later.
