Hmm funny? Not much...
So I'll start with the alt: whilst dropping my son off at school this morning for his last day in reception my (retired) boss phoned me up to have a go at me for not being here, despite the fact that my (not retired) boss had given me permission to do this. Followed by my wife phoning me when I arrived at work to have a go at me too.

As for funnies - a little stoned the other night, I stumbled across an old episode of South Park that made me giggle a lot when they decided that the best person to build a wall around the town would be the guy from the Chinese takeaway.

Why does your ex-boss
or your boss have your phone number? That was your first mistake.

It is a useful way for them to be able to contact me.
Unfortunately it is open to abuse.
On the plus side, the postman has just brought me two new LPs and tonight I shall be dining on some fine South Indian cuisine, so things are looking up.

If it's your personal phone
you don't have to give them your number.

Indian food is always good. But not to spicy for me, please.

My work have my mobile but not my home phone
and I can see who's calling and decide whether "it was turned off" or not.

Nobody swallows that one, if you claim to be too stupid to return a missed call to your workplace then your cards are well and truly marked

It is not uncommon
for an employer to want your contact details.

This particular Indian food is not 'good', it is amaaaaazing. In fact, were we not both male, married and straight I think I would ask the chef to marry me. It'd never work though, the cultural differences are too great.
