They call the office, I have gatekeepers before it gets to me.
Call my cell “new phone, who dis?”

“Hello, this is IT, have you tried turning it off and on again?” It’s funny cause I don’t work in IT.

You’re not a true Alpha unless, when YOU want to make a call to someone, you have your assistant call that person and, when she gets them on the line she says, “please hold for Mr. S.”

I say “Good afternoon, “place of work” this is GreenRockTiger, how can I help you?
Or ‘can you please hold’ if the phone is lit up like a Christmas tree

I used to answer with my company’s group name, then my first and last names. The caller would know they reached, for example: “Network Infrastructure Planning, Yew Kindewit”.

I usually answer with "Howdy!"
It lets them know I'm into butt stuff and have a deep throat.
Or at least I would if I had graduated from TAMU

I'm starting to think that that it would be more professional to answer with something besides hello.
I think this really depends on what you do for a living.
If you take calls from customers, it’s absolutely more professional. If you’re taking calls from coworkers or vendors, I don’t think people really care.
