A man joined a big Multi National Company as a trainee.
On his first day, he dialled the kitchen and shouted into the phone:
"Get me a cup of coffee, quickly!"
The voice from the other side responded: "You fool; you've dialled the wrong extension!
Do you know who you're talking to?"
"No" replied the trainee. "It's the Managing Director of the company, you idiot!"
The trainee shouted back: "And do you know who you are talking to, you idiot?"
"No!" replied the Managing Director angrily.
"Thank God!" replied the trainee and kept the phone down.

Thanks for the chuckle!
You're very welcome, Rooster.
Wait a minute!
The trainee should have shouted, "Don't you know proper grammar, you idiot? You should have said, 'Do you know to whom you are talking?'!"
Very correct, T(h)ink; I was also wondering ...
I love it, will keep it in mind for future reference when I make a stuff-up...
Lol - thank you, Virginia, I have been wondering indeed if I was too old-fashioned, because I used "... to whom ..."
Here you go Marianne you are in good company here!
Lol, thank you, Virginia, that is quite comforting.
