> Groo-ish Service:
> This week, all our office phones went dead and I had to contact the

> 8:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. When I asked if they could give me a smaller time
> window, the pleasant gentleman asked, "Would you like us to call you before
> we  come?" I replied that I didn't see how he would be able to do that,
> since  our phones weren't working.  He also requested that we report future

Maybe They want to call your mobile/hand phone... as other means of
communication is dead....

> Groo SIGHTING #2
> The stoplight on the corner buzzes when it's safe to cross the street. I was
> crossing with an intellectually challenged coworker
> of mine when she asked if I knew what the buzzer was for.  I explained that
> it signals blind people when the light is red.   Appalled, she responded,
> "What on earth are blind people doing driving?!"

Maybe it's for blind who cross the road.... not for the driver....
