Last night, after not being able to leave the lab until after 9, I stopped at Wendy’s to pick up some very late dinner for Kev and me. While I was there, someone called the Wendy’s and told the manager that she was being abducted and was trapped in the trunk of her car. The phone cut off before the manager could get her phone number or any other information.

so…that was either the dumbest prank call ever, or the dumbest abductee ever, because how do you try to call 911 (I would have to assume that was her goal, unless she was craving a frosty during her abduction) and accidentally dial the 10 digit number for wendy’s?

No kidnapping reports in atlanta last night, though theoretically she could have been calling from anywhere in the country. The manager didn’t know what to do…so I ordered, got my food, and went home. What could be done???

    Definately sounds like a prank, though not as bad as the guy that would call posing as an officer and get managers to strip search female employees.

    So what’d you get to eat? Anything good?

    according to the manager, the woman sounded “very sincere.” who knows.

    bacon cheeseburger, chilli, and I split some fries with Kev.

    If I’m going to have that crappy a day, I’m going to eat something GOOD!

    At least she didn’t give you shit for asking for salt.

    How does one sound “sincere” when one has been abducted and locked in the trunk of a car? Right.

    Pass the Frosty.

    this is what happens when you have wendy’s on your one button dialing and panic and hold the nine a bit too long. you get to order wendy’s instead of talking to an automated 911 service. heh.
