Simple Taxi Service

The Boss : "Can you one-four-one a text?"*

* Explanation for readers outside of the UK - dialling 1471 on a UK telephone gives you the number of the last person to call you, similarly 141 before dialling out causes your number to remain invisible while dialling.

Here's me : "Er... no? I mean, er, why would ye?"

The Boss : "I have to send a text with an address to John."

Here's me : "So...?"

The Boss : "But I don't want him to have my number."

Here's me : "Um, why not?"

The Boss : "I think he's dodgy."

Here's me : "Dodgy how?"

The Boss : "Just dodgy. I don't want him having my number in case he does anything with it."

Here's me : "Er... What do you think he's going to do, with your number? I mean it's a company phone an' all."

The Boss : "He might send me strange taxis."
