College:
First year in the dorms. We had a phone up front that people would answer and a buzzer system to ring the room - we had to come to the front to take the call. I was sitting up front with a couple of friends, phone rings, I hush everyone and start:

Hello, you have reached xyz dorm. NONE of us are able to come to the phone right now....so on. At the end, I hit a number on the key pad - a dad started to leave a message with the machine (me). The dad was calling for his son, who was not the brightest star out there. I guess his dad wasn't either.
