Communication #101

Always be clear what subject you are talking about or referring to.

DBS called me on my office desk phone earlier this afternoon.

DBS: Hi I'm Sarah, calling to check and confirm on the transfer of $4million.
Me: DBS? $4million??
Sarah: Yes, $4million.
Me: Transfer in or out??
Sarah: Transfer out.
Me: I don't even have that amount of money darling.
Sarah: Erm...
Me: Oh wait. You are calling to check on [my organisation's name] banking activities is it??
Sarah: Yes I am.
Me: ...........*aiyah say so earlier lah*................


So apparently I have been listed by my admin as one of the persons for the bank to call and check with if there seems to be any strange or unusually large value of transactions being done with my organisation's funds.
