Phone Etiquette

Yesterday i was getting ready to leave work when a man suffering from ALS (Lou Gherig's Disease) called to berate me for apparently caring more about frozen embryos than i do about sick people. After ten minutes of me not getting a word in edgewise he finally told me that he hopes me and all my coworkers get ALS so we would know how it feels. That's when i decided i didn't need to be on the phone with him any longer. Great way to end a day huh? It's always nice when perfect strangers wish crippling, fatal diseases on you.
