The saga continues.
Today I answered the phone!
I wish I had not.
Again it was a day I arrived before even the early birds. Again I was greeted by that persisting chime of an inner office call to the receptionist's desk.
This time without thinking about it, instead of lifting and hanging up, I answered the phone.
I wish I had not; how does the saying go? Ignorance is bliss.
But I did.
I held the receiver to my ear and reluctantly asked, "Hello?"
What I heard happened quickly, but I will explain what I think I made out of it.
It sounded like someone 'exhaling' (not heavy breathing, just a quick audible exhale).
I was followed by what I can only describe as a 'shhhhht' kind of like someone trying to quiet you in a library.
Then click (disconnect).
I took that with a grain of salt; having to work in this place before people arrive, I cannot allow trivialities to prevent me from doing my job.
I can say I was a bit apprehensive walking to my office (the Technology Department), which is the first door in a hall that ends with the locked door of the HR department, where three cubicles deep the call originated from.
