A friend once called the wrong number, got the wrong house, and had the right person pick up.

So, I was at work, replacing a modem for my boss. I’d removed the modem and connected a telephone to test that it had dial-tone. Soon after, the phone rang. It didn’t make much sense, because that phone line had only been used for outgoing calls from the computer.

When I picked up, the person on the other line just said ‘Hey man, you want to see a movie later?’. I recognized the voice, too. It was a friend of mine. I was really confused for a second and said something like ‘Josh? How did you get this number?’. He said he called my home phone number.

He must have misdialed my number, and accidentally dialed the number for my bosses modem line, at work. He called the wrong number, got the wrong house, and the right person picked up, on a phone that had only been connected for 2 minutes in the past 2 years. The odds must be astronomical.

It’s just a weird coincidence that I’ll always remember.
