15. Years ago my husband worked at a car dealership

Every now and then one of the mechanics would call the dealership's operator and ask to have Mr. Mehoff, Mr. Jack Mehoff paged. She would dutifully make the announcement and they pulled that on her successfully several times...then one day someone did it and she made the page....paused....and then said ....Alright you guys, cut it out!! Bwahaha....joke's over.
