just wondering what everyone says on their greetings...
anything funny? or is it the standard: 'this is ___ ___, can't come to the phone, leave a message'

I'm just wondering what everyone says on their greeting.

Does anyone say anything funny or unique or do most of you say the standard like, 'i'm not here right now, please leave a message'?

[ReD_AzN_RoSe]

Well i say:
"Hi this is Rosie, I'm sorry I can't answer the phone right now, leave a message and WAIT by your phone, until I can call you right back."

My bf is alittle more creative then me:
"ooOooO Dang i can't pick up the phone i tell you what i'm down in that nascar track WOOOHOOO that left turn, if you wanna get back with me,whatever man, later man." [something like that, with a redneck accent]

[she-smiles]

lol, my former greeting use to be quite demanding.
i hate it whenever people call me, and they don't leave a message.
so i use to say something like:
leave me a message after the beep.
if you don't, i'm assuming it's not important and i won't return your call.
thanks. *sarcastically* have a nice day.
but now, it's normal:
hey, sorry i missed your call.
leave me a message and i'll get back to you as soon as possible.
:]]]

& i'm sure some of you guys have done this or experienced it.
when you call someone, and he/she says:
hello? *long pause*
and then you start talking, but then it only turned out to be a voicemail......

my house phone says "Hey this is sarah,me and my mom arn't available at the moment so please leave a message after the beep"

i need to get a cellphone : ((

OMG! I hate that "Hello..?" thing! Cuz my friend did that once and I was eager to get a hold of him.

But hmm..I don't have a VM set up anymore because I hate the way my voice sounded over any recording device.
Usually it'd be something like.
"Too busy for you. Leave a msg!"

or

"Hi i'm not able to come to the phone right now. Leave a msg and i'll get back to you."

[brian032]

"Sup?"

Pause for a few seconds

"Yeah, so how ya' doin?"

Pause again for a few seconds

"I'm doin' great. Well, I'm not here right now, so leave a message I'll get back to you. Peace"

[Xarthan]

I go, "WTF do you want? If you really want something leave a msg or I'll bust a cap in YO head!"

haha no j/k, mine goes "Hello, Sorry I've missed your call" then it goes to the automated voice "Record your message at the tone"

[msLyn]

"Hey, I'm not here right now so leave a message."


Yep. Plain & simple.

[xstrawberry_bearx]

"Hello... *pauses* .. Hello? ... *pause* Not funny, is anyone there?
.. Ohhh, hey! Sorry-- but I'm not here at the moment. Leave a message and I'll get back to you later. (: "
My family HATES it and my friends are all telling me to change it LOL

[vip_gd]

I don't have voice message greeting.
hey! that should be my greeting .. but then the meaning would be useless rofl

[love!mvmt]

lmao ive always wanted to do the "Hello? (pause) Oh, hey! (pause) Yeah.. im not here right now, leave a message" voicemail to annoy my friends, but my mom calls me like every five minutes so I'm afraid she'll get all mad at me thinking I hung up on her since she can be a bit... slow at times lol

[nounu]

i had some weird ones..

there was one that i had.. and my inlaw thought that i was bitching at her.. but it
was just my voicemail.. these stupid people kept on calling me.. for some reason
like...telemarketers.. or something.. it went like this..

"WHAT HE F. UCK DO YOU WANT.. STOP F. UCKING CALLING ME.. STUPID 1.800...... NUMBER..


Currenly i have...

"Yobosayo?..... Yobosayo?..... *sigh*"

i'm not korean.. i think i spelled it wrong.. but i got that from "Koh Jid Mal"

[dahanizzle]

lol.. i say
"hello?.......... HELLO??..... who is this?!" then the people start talking and then the msg saying to leave a msg pops up hahaha..

my mom gets really, really pissed off.. oftentimes she calls me JUST to say to switch my greeting LOL

[Xarthan]

i guess a good standard one is "You know what to do."

[notoriousbea]

I used to work at a call center and so I heard people's voicemails daily. One though, was my ultimate favorite:

If you are a billing company, I already sent your money.
If you are my parents, please give me money.
If you are my friend, you owe me money.
If you are a girl, I have lots of money.

---

Mine is pretty generic: "Hey this is Brenda, leave me a message!"

[fragment]

mine goes something along the lines of;

"yo mate, don't bother wasting your time & money leaving a message cos i don't check my voice mail. hit me with a text & i'll get back to you soon as."

cos checking my voicemail costs me money >_>

[duykato]

Mine is me singing R. Kelly's -Leave your Name


Hehe.. "You have reached Duy Le.. unfortionately I'm asleep.. been out partying all night and I'm blasted off that henesee.. etc.."


People get a kick out of it.

[Antz]

i wanna do the pausing thing but i haven't had time to do it yet.
but mine's just the usual "hi i'm anna, sorry i'm not here right now but leave a message and i'll get back to you soon. thanks!"
my bf's old one was about ninjas. it was so freaky.

[goboys_lover]

mines is
me: hello... hey hold on a sec. (sounds like i hit a button)
my sis: who's that?
me: eh u know who... i really don't wanna talk to them so i'ma leave em on hold for a while.
my sis: are u sure it's on hold?
me: oh crap (hang up)

lol i know i'm such a dork.... but eh i get bored and ppl tend to think i'm so wrong for the vm greeting... but i think it's funny.
