When I worked on a *help desk* I had to answer the phone with this whole
spiel stating the company name, the division name, the department name and
my name and ask if they needed help. 90% of the people calling the help
desk worked for the same company I did. I'd met most of the regular callers
personally when they came into town for conferences. They damn well knew
who they were calling, who I was, and why would they call a help desk unless
they needed help? But we had to do it. It was just silly.
