Dear Queenie,
How do you respond to someone who calls you on the phone and says, “Hello, it’s me,” when you don’t recognise their voice?—At a loss
Dear At a loss,
If you have caller ID on your phone, that should tell you who is calling (assuming they are calling from their own telephone). If not, you can continue the conversation and hope the caller will give you a clue to his or her identity. Or you can respond, “Which ‘me’? I know so many people with that name.”
