If your company was bought by an Indian company
We may all need to go to sensitivity counseling after this practical joke, but who cares, it was funny.
The company I work for was recently bought by a company out of India, Hinduja HTMT. They are slowly working their way into our work environment. Our helpdesk consists of 3 guys answering the phone. One of these guys has been spending most of his time doing programming and incorporating Linux into the company. It didn't make sense for him to be in the helpdesk any longer so they are moving him to our Unix administration team. The supervisor of our helpdesk is an older "gentleman" who is pretty set in his ways. We decided we needed a good laugh this Monday morning, so we placed a call to the helpdesk supervisor. The transcript went something like this: (Make sure to read the "joker" part with an Indian accent)
joker: "Hello, my name is Kumar. I just started the 3rd shift here at HTMT. I was told by Sati to call you so I may be answering helpdesk calls for Affina. When is it when I will be able to train with you?"
Help Desk Supervisor: Click (hangs up the phone) Turns to other helpdesk workers and says "Fucking Mattingly". (Mattingly is the one that played the part of joker)
joker: calls back to complain about getting cut off, but the call goes straight to voice mail.
Maybe you had to be there, or maybe you had to know Million (helpdesk supervisor) to think it's funny.
