What’s the weirdest phone call you have ever received?

I was trying to reach out to you because we have a Mr X here, who claims you are his legal guardian. He needs you to come down and sign some forms.

ATTENTION SPIKES UP. What could he want with me? Did I do something wrong? Lord did I forget to pay something? Questions start flying through my head. What would the detention center sheriff want with me?

Yes sir it is.

Why are terrible, boring art pieces done by famous people worth so much while beautiful pieces done by amateurs are worthless?

Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?

Sure no problem officer.

No sir I sure don't, I live in the next city over.

My boyfriend won’t tell me his past and it hurts me so I broke up with him what do I do?

Whew, not in trouble!! But someone named Sean with a similar number is apparently about to have a rather bad day.

Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?

Do what? Officer, I'm sorry I have no kids of my own, and I don't know anybody by that name.

I'm sorry to bother you, my staff just told me our guy corrected his information and had a number off for his home phone. Have a good day. Hangs up.

HELLO

Hi, I’m Jo. My best friend died 2 years ago today. My husband died 6 months later. So, I’m a depressed mess (we were married 28 years) and can’t shake it. Even my Brother is worried. Some days I don’t do anything, and avoid men cause I don’t want to date. Any suggestions? Thanks for reading.

Hi this is Sargent Moss from the County detention center. Is this Sean?

I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.

After a few moments he returns.

Im happy but there is a heavy feeling of sadness in my heart that I just can't remove. Why am I like this?

Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??

Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.
