Pete Smith here.

A colleague at work picked up the phone by saying, “Pete Smith speaking.” (He’s got an English accent, but we’re in an Australian workplace.)

I nearly lost it laughing!

Do you think he realizes it?

Or is he indifferent?

Should I say something to him?

One thought on “Pete Smith speaking”

  1. It sounds like a lighthearted moment! If you think he might appreciate the humor, it could be a fun conversation to bring up. Just keep it light—maybe mention how it made you chuckle. But if you’re unsure how he might respond, it’s perfectly fine to let it be and share the laugh with others instead. Ultimately, it depends on your relationship with him and if you think he’d find it amusing. What do you think?
