Here we go again, folks. A man with an accent called on behalf of his boss (couldn't understand the name) and requested a specific IT manager. He didn't know the reason, but it was his job to connect these two people. I explained that I cannot transfer calls without that information. He said he'd obtain it and call back, but my money is on never hearing from him again -- at least not for this company or supervisor.
He was calling my boss directly. I asked his name, he said "Eric Smith" (ok - sure) and when I told him, chances of my boss answering his own phone were small and leaving a message might be the best option, he said he was calling on behalf of (what sounded like) Chad Walls office. He said he'd gather more information and get back to me. I'm hoping Switchboard, in the previous comments, has the right idea.
