        Yeah... I just voice that sentiment.

        "Ummm... you called me, buddy..."

                Which is exactly what I say...

                "Um... You called me chief".

                  I always just say "you called me... who are you?"

                  Quick tip in phone etiquette: if you call someone and another person answers the phone, simply ask if the person you are looking for is around. It's that simple.

                    When someone says that to me, I respond, "Who's asking?"

                      yeah, my standard response is "if you don't know then you have the wrong number"

                      and I hang up

                        What I liked as this guy who called just about 3 hours ago, asked for "Shelly". I told him he had a wrong number and he was like "Wait, no I don't!" and I am like "Sir, there is no one named Shelly here. I am sorry, but you do indeed have a wrong number." and he started to argue some more and I just hung up. He called right back, I let him argue with my voice mail.

                          Sounds like a jackass. He must have wanted Shelly bad!

                                I say, if you won't identify yourself then we absolutely can't do business together. Usually it's prospective domain buyers in my case...

                                  hey a quick question to you

                                  do you prefer being called with offers/inquires about your domains or emailed?

                                  does it happen that you ignore email inquires but are happy to talk on the phone about your names?
                                  I don't use ICQ anymore.

                                        Caller: "Hi is Shelly there?"

                                        Caller: "No, I DON'T"

                                        Caller: "Okay, maybe I DO have the wrong number."

                                            My favorite is- I am having sex with my wife right now.

                                            Usually gets the telemarketer off the phone. My father taught me that one ;)

                                                    do you prefer being called with offers/inquires about your domains or emailed?

                                                    does it happen that you ignore email inquires but are happy to talk on the phone about your names?
                                                    I prefer email at first but mainly due to the fact that I have my notes and domain spreadsheet on my pc. If I could get that on my Iphone I would be prepared to deal anywhere I was at the time.

                                                      I can honestly say I don't think I have ever done that to anyone. If I have it was so long ago I can't recall doing it.

                                                            In China, many phone calls start with "who are you"? rather than hello.
