This is why I will often ring Spouse just after the train goes through the station before ours, because I *have* had a phone call along the lines of "Yeah, I'm in "the next station AFTER ours", when's the next train back?".

On the more amusing side of this coin, we were all being hit by the restarts at my old job and a colleague who was SO DONE with a manager just cut the teams call and then 5 minutes later called back with "SO sorry, my laptop did a restart".

Not quite as endearing but equally appreciated: I wasn't feeling well and asked to have the afternoon off. I'd been in the office an hour when the manager came in and told me to go home (slept for 4 hours straight)
