Not again!

I used Google to find the name of Roger Bass and found out he doesn't exist (fake name) and I called the collection agency back.
They were pleasant and asked my phone number (which I knew they could see in caller ID anyway) and she asked is a Huan Ho lived there. I told her no and she said "okay we will take your number off our list".
Clearly I am not an Asian person but I am expecting that I will have to spend money to send them a screw off letter. I have no doubt that they will call back again before the day is out.
At least this time, they weren't asking for the Father /Son team that share my name (almost). Those collection agencies just simply didn't believe that I was not them. I ran them through the ringer.

How would they know you aren't Asian? Not all Asians have an accent. When I was working at a CA I never assumed I had a wrong number if a name didn't match a voice. I remeber once I was calling for a man who clearly sounded like a woman and was very angry with me for assuming he was a woman.
Roger Bass is prob an alias. He must not know about Bass & Assoc or he wouldn't have piced that name I don't think.

I sang Deck the Halls for them and I sang it "Fah la la la la la la la laaaaaaa" instead of "Fah rah rah rah rah rah rah rah raaaaaaaaaa". :D
The point being that we have been at this addy for some time and never had any Asians living here nor have we ever had a call for an Asian (as in recycled number by the phone co). I have, however, attempted to take in a 6'2" blondish, Swedish nanny named Svetlana--but the wife wasn't going for that. Didn't even matter that I said "but its for the kids".
