A Hebrew robocall?

Filed under: Jews, Life — Meryl Yourish @ 8:35 pm

Someone in the marketing department in some company that has my phone number really screwed up. Because I got a robocall in Hebrew late this afternoon.

It was the greeting that tipped me off that something was, er, not kosher.

“Shalom!”

From there, I spent the next minute trying desperately to recognize some words. I got “olam” somewhere in the middle, but I think I was laughing a little too hard to get many of them. Oh, and the last word was “shtayim,” but by the time I hit the two key, the robocall had ended, so I didn’t find out if I was correct in thinking the last sentence was, “If you’d like to repeat this information, press two.”

The best Sarah and I can come up with is someone at the local JCC messed up. At least, I’m hoping. Because my number is unlisted, and I moved recently, and I’m on the national Do Not Call list, so I’m thinking whoever called me with a Hebrew robocall is waaay off the mark.
