It’s that one day of the year when all of us remember about 5% of the time to answer the phone with the greatest of all greetings: “Buddy the Elf. What’s your favorite color?”
True. It’s 95% of those 5% of calls end in the other person hanging up in complete confusion, but that’s not the point. It’s the holiday season, a time for cheer, fun, and some telephonic frivolity.
It’s easy to get stressed out and caught up in the hectic business of December. Sometimes we need a little reminder to appreciate the reason for the season.
So enjoy, and always remember and never forget: if it was really important they’ll probably call back.
