We got no end of cold callers there, and most of them would say oh, sorry I can't ask you any of our (not very important) questions in English, as legally we have to ask them in Danish. And I would be like "oh what a real shame"... :D BavarianSojournhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12701272367912860549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4551977354338403876.post-20854470792103047192012-11-21T08:56:31.276+00:002012-11-21T08:56:31.276+00:00You tell this tale so well - it did make me laugh....You tell this tale so well - it did make me laugh.

I don't get it - when I call somewhere and people don't speak English, I hang up almost immediately. It never occurs to me that the person I'm calling might have a non-English-speaking friend answer their phone - or that they might *really* be able to speak English and are just holding out on me. Maybe I'm just not persistent enough, though!MsCarolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03623997911568143459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4551977354338403876.post-74452029200945255272012-11-21T07:46:47.010+00:002012-11-21T07:46:47.010+00:00Stacy - Oh, no - thank goodness I've not run i...Stacy - Oh, no - thank goodness I've not run into any of them -yet!

Just the other day, I was thinking how odd it is that people just don't believe they've got the wrong number and that I might actually morph into the person they want - even tho I must surely sound like the wrong gender/nationality/insert other big clue.

I have lived in several places where strange men - always the men - switch to English and want to chat. I don't feel bad at all and just hang up. All the while, praying that they don't know what number they just dialed so they can't call again. I had one rather persistent suitor in Malaysia that didn't stop calling back - apparently even my hello was mesmerizing - until I threatened to call the police.
