How Do You Answer You Phone?

I often say "The presidents office how may I help you?" "I'm not here but please leave a message and then I say beeep :Þ" or "Hello, it's the president, how may I help you" I dont like just to say Hello when I answer the phone that's so boring :D

I don't usually answer the phone, but if the ID Box says unavailable, and I know its a creepy telemarketer I answer with "why are you so unavailable?" If they ignore that and keep talking I tell them, now I'm unavailable too, and I hang up.

I usually just answer with a simple "hello"??

I almost always answer the phone unless I am sure I know who is calling (I do not have caller ID)and I do not want to talk to them because I know that what they want is something really stupid that I do not need to assist them with. Sometimes I have been known to answer the phone by saying "Ajax Mortuary". On a side note dizzybizzy, I was wondering if there is anything wrong with you R key?

I usually say hello most of the time.

lees bait and tackel this is big worm how may i help you

when i see friends' names on caller ID, i answer "yellow" (my way of making fun with "hello"), and they usually answer with their fave color like "blue here" or "red". since i've started this, it just became our "codes", hehe. with business contacts, i go by the book (no fun).

Hello

ya

I usually just say hello or actually halló (the Icelandic version). But I do get a bit mean when I realise someone has dialled the wrong number. When they ask for someone who doesn't live here I either say they went to the movie or tell them they got offered a job at a big ship and are sailing somewhere far away. That usually gets a sound of a shock from the caller but then I usually start laughing and tell them they got the wrong number. My cousin used to answer the phone with new jokes every day, he would answer like you were calling a prison, a mental hospital or just the name of some companies.

I'm italian, so I answer "Pronto "

just a simple hello is enough.

Ver simple "Hello". You follow any other way?

U gotta have some style, i do it like this "wats up, its GG"

I am boring, I usually just answer the phone with Hello.

just hello

Hello!!!

Hello,how are you!

hello? (blah blah) yeah? (blah blah) oh she/he is not here! you can call later.. :P

I like answering in some foreign language like japanese or spanish, but then i end up saying it wrong and sounding like an idiot =P
