That's...ah...c...for...um

The place I worked at two weeks ago there was a man whose name is very close to the name of a part of the female anatomy that most men can't find, let alone talk about.

Which makes it all the more funny when they call up and say, "Hi could I speak to Bob...ah Cl...ah" and then trail off as you can hear their face go red over the phone. This from people you will quite happily yell out "Johnno you big f*&^ing c%$t you're such a pussy etc etc" in front of all manner of people on a building site and yet they can't bring themselves to say "Klitsidis" It's not like it actually is "Clitoris" now that I would understand.

After the fifth or sixth time it happened in one day I actually said, "You know it's weird, we have two Bob's here and yet no one ever says their last names" there was an embarrassed silence on the end of the phone "It's a little bit, well embarrassing isn't it? You're not so comfortable saying it, am I right?" to which a gale of embarrassed laughter enschewed and the person mumbled 'yes' and then I transfered them through.

It had me giggling under my breath for the rest of the day. And it was only ever the men that rang up for him, never the women.

Men are strange creatures sometimes
