Miscommunication

I've posted before that my phone number at work is just one digit off of the "Vector Control" squad that does all of the rat exterminations and varmint hunting for the city. Usually a good source of amusement over the course of the day. Today I got another call for the same:

Me: Hello, this is Aaron Ritz
Woman: Is this the place for rat inspections.
Me: No, I'm Aaron Ritz and I work for the Office of Transportation and Utilities.
Woman: Where?
Me: The Office of Transportation and Utilities
Woman: Constipation Utilities? That's the strangest office I ever heard of...

Good times at the City of Philadelphia.
