    Gonna need you to hang on. I’m getting a collect call.

    …uh-huh…mm-hmmm…ok…sorry, wrong number.

    Hey, that was Bob. He had a baby. It’s a boy.

      Before my time slightly, but I always heard some kids calling collect home to say they are ready to be picked up.

      Ring

      Click “Hello?”

      “There is a collect call from ‘ItsBobImDoneAtTheArc’ would you like to accept the fees?”

      click

        I was the first in my my friend group in highschool to have a car and a cell phone. My friends would call my cell collect from a payphone and just say where they wanted me to meet them. Never needed a name or explanation, if I got a collect call with a location I would decline it and be there as soon as I could.
