Wait! Let me get a pencil and paper...

I can't count the many times someone has called the office asking for a telephone number. Usually I have the number on the tip of my tongue and I quickly tell the party on the other line. I can't count the many times the party on the other line says, "Wait! Hang on a minute and let me get a pencil and paper to write the number down!"

My question is why don't they already have a paper and pencil ready to write down the number if that is the only reason they are calling to begin with?

Guess they don't think about it, ugh!

Finally, they find a paper and pencil. I repeat the number again, 793. WAIT! WAIT! WHAT? 793 I say again. WAIT! 7..........9.........3........

What is the world coming too?
