So almost time for your prank call it's broken Jeffrey in the morning and going to work now is a lot different than it was a couple decades ago. At least that's what I hear
from Brooke. I wasn't in the workforce. I was just a hopeful young chiseled pre-teen at the time. But one of the perks that certain companies like to do now is bring your pet to work day. A lot of places do it and in today's call I will take full advantage of that. You're going to see how in your brand new phone tap right now. You're up in Jeffrey's phone test on the 20s. Hello. Hi, I'm calling from the insurance. My name is Denny Plopkins. Is this Leslie? It is. Hi, Leslie. I'm just calling to follow up on an insurance claim that you made with us regarding an incident with your car. Yes. Okay. Now before we proceed just so you know no official decisions have been made yet on who's it fault. So okay. I'm here to get the full story of what happened from your perspective. Okay. So I was driving and I was going to speed limit. Actually a
couple of miles under the speed limit. Okay. Go ahead. Do you have your dog? I do. Yeah, let's take your pet to work day here. That's so nice. Oh my god. I love that. Let's go stop it. Let's go. Let's go down. Down. No. That is. Oh my goodness. Okay. I'm sorry about that, Leslie. Nope. Nope. I love that. So I'm sorry. It totally interrupted your story. You said you were going 20 over the speed limit and no. No. No. No. No. No. I said I said I was going under the speed limit. Oh my goodness. No. Down. Down. Down. Down. Down. Down. Down. Oh my god. Are you okay? Over here. I'm so sorry about that. Those things can really hurt you. What kind of bird was that? It just just loose in your office? Oh no, no, no. That's my bird. It's an African gray parrot.
Oh my goodness. Just remember, it's take your pet to work day. Okay. Yeah. I was trying to get my assistant Cheryl to come over and take care of him. Just how many pets did you bring to work today? Just a couple. Just a couple. There's no rules limiting the number of pets you can bring in on take your pet to work day. So I thought I'd bring the whole family. Oh, uh, uh, uh, whiskers. Maybe you should just call me back when it's not so chaotic over there. No, I think I'm staying on track. You had some incident driving your car. I think we covered that. So just keep going. I mean, I wasn't really my incident. I was doing everything right. I was driving the speed limit. I was actually a couple of miles under as I mentioned earlier. Oh, Jerry. Jerry, stay over in your car. Jerry. Yeah, sorry. Jerry's my goat. What kind of car do you drive? Just that's Jerry Aussie. I want a visual for myself. Lesley, you're trying to get me off my game. Remember, we're not talking about my car. We're talking about your car, the one you crashed.
I excuse you. No, no, no, no, no. Well, you haven't really told me much about your incident. You just said that why don't we finish the list of pets and then maybe I can tell you what I forgot that I brought you today. Remember what we talked about before we came to work. I was going to go get away from Jerry. No. Shit, Cheryl. I'm going to need some help over you. This is out of control. Lesley, no way. You're at a national insurance company, like a proper office job. You have an assistant. Yes, her name's Cheryl. And she's doing a mediocre job at best with yes. Wow. Would you like to speak with her? I think I would. I'm concerned for her safety. One of the clients wants to talk to you.
Cheryl. Oh my god. Okay, come on. No way. That is her. The cow. Oh my god. She doesn't believe that you're really my assistant, Cheryl. No, now she's really not going to believe. I'm going to come down there and meet the elephant. I feel like you're figuring out this is a prank call. Yeah, because my real name is Jeff from Radio Showbrook and Jeffrey in the morning. Your best friend Jules wanted to set you up for this. She said that the two of you mess with each other all the time and she thought your recent car incident would be a perfect chance to get back at you. Was it my African gray parrot that put it over the top or was it the elephant? I'm girl down. You'll get a peanut later.
It was the cow. Right now. That's no way. I've seen what cows do. There's no way. Most cows maybe, but Cheryl is my assistant. She's well trained. Yes, you are a good girl. I'm going to milk you later. So can Jeffrey's phone taps on the 20s? All cat parents understand the feeling of being totally ignored by your cat. And often thinking, does my cat even love me?
