My current employer has supplied me with a mobile phone – complete with a phone number used by a previous employee.
This wouldn’t be a problem, but it’s becoming clear that the last owner was using it for personal calls. Very personal calls. All I know is that his name was Dan and his friends are very… open.
Over the last month, I’ve received text messages clearly meant for this Dan fellow. One guy in particular is very insistent with his ongoing text messages, no matter how many times I reply to explain that Dan doesn’t own the phone anymore. Some of the messages I’ve received include:
January 4: Is there any cricket training tonight, mate?
January 9: You know that Tasha bird I was chatting to last night? Do you have her number? Bit of alright, wouldn’t mind smashing the back of that.
January 11: Can you ask Tasha to call me back? She’s not returning my calls
January 18: I’ve decided to quit playing cricket because I can’t take getting hurt any more by other people. I thought I was happy but that ended this morning.
January 27: Do you have that Kelly bird’s phone number?
Given that the bloke keeps replying, I’m tempted to give up and just assume a persona. Should I tell him that he’s a crap cricket player and that’s why girls don’t like him? Or perhaps I could tell him that I’m too busy to reply because I’m banging Tasha and Kelly…?

Tell this guy, as Dan, that you’re secretly gay, have been in love with him for months, and that’s why you’ve been deliberately sabotaging his efforts with girls. That should shut him up.
you should TOTALLY string him along
Tell him to call 9011 8282. I’m sure there’s a Tasha or Kelly on there he could talk to.
Mindlessmunkey is on the money. Have some fun.
Oh definitely string him along, hooray, fun and games!
I have a sure-fire way to get rid of him, it may not work immediately but after a while he’ll get the idea… Just send him a picture of your balls.
If he responds leave it a few days then send him another picture of your balls, but this time include some shaft in the frame, repeat as required until he vanishes, it shouldn’t take long.
Oh, and Tasha and Kelly sound like classy birds, do you reckon I could have their numbers?
