A curious case from life: when the number is wrong

🙂 Hello everyone! Sometimes people make mistakes when dialing a phone number. Just one wrong number and you are in the wrong place. For example, this curious incident that I remember for a long time. Hope you find it interesting. Listen …

I used to work in the reception room of the director of the Taganrog Automobile Plant (TagAZ). In the late 90s, Korean car models began to be produced. Concern “Daewoo” provided the supply of components in special containers.

The director’s reception is always full of phone calls, faxes and various things. Once on the phone they asked:

– Is this a morgue?

– No, you are mistaken, this is an automobile production.

About once a week, someone made a wrong number and again asked about the “dead room.” What kind of joke? Using the directory, I checked the phone number of the Taganrog morgue. Oh my God! Four out of five digits completely coincided with the factory phone number.

Now everything is clear that this is far from being a joke. I plunged into work again and soon forgot about the unpleasant coincidence.

A couple of months later, a loud phone call rang out.

– Reception. Listen to you.

– Hello, this is Stepanov from Moscow. I was asked to call back. Do you still have Oleinikov?

– Oleinikov is still with us. Now the meeting.

– In the sense of a consultation? It’s clear. It’s a serious matter if you have a consultation. I’m on the container issue.

– Container for spare parts?

– Uh-uh, what spare parts?

– Sorry, component parts. Leave your number, Oleinikov will call you back.

– How will he call you back? He’s a corpse! I need to transport it.

– Where are you calling?

– To the morgue of the city of Taganrog!

– Sorry, but you are in the wrong place.

When the meeting ended, I told Oleinikov about the phone call and the funny situation. But he was not at all funny, he even blushed slightly.

Friends, tell us your curious case in the comments. After all, the facts are known when by inadvertently calling another subscriber, the fate of people changed. You do not believe?

In life, there are unintended acquaintances on the phone, which turn into friendship or love. Sometimes it happens that an accidental phone call saves someone from suicide. How can you not believe in a guardian angel or in Fate? But this does not happen only with those who rudely respond to people who have inadvertently made a mistake.
