My suitcase apparently decided that it would like to do some more traveling around the U.S. The last I heard it was visiting the Mormons in Salt Lake City, and might possibly head on over to Reno or Las Vegas before returning to Denver. At least, that's what I THINK the guy in India said during the 45 minutes we spent together on the phone as I tried to figure out how a guy in Mumbai can help me find my suitcase:
India: Hello, this is United Baggage Service. My name is Rathmankanduskiingininda. How can I helping you?
Me: Ummm, Hi Rathmann...somethingorother. My suitcase is missing. It should be at Dulles, since my flight was cancelled yesterday.
India: Wery good sir, I am sure ve can be of helping to you. Can you please giving me your name?
Me: Jim Myers
India: Very good Mr Tyres, Let me just to be checking this for you.
Me: No, it's MYERS
India: Oh, golly gosh - so sorry Mr Fryers. Now, do you have the POWOB number?
Me: No, its not Fryers, its..... oh never mind. Yes, the number is KD533P.
India: OK, please being patient Mr Mypers. Oh yes, I found it! Your suitcase is living in Salt Lake City!
Me: But I don't live in Salt Lake City. I live near Denver, Colorado.
India: You don't live in Salt Lake City? Then why is your suitcase there?
Me: Look, Mr Rathmanuselessinformation, can you just send the bag back to Denver please?
India: Thank you please Mr Calypers. I will see what we can doing for you. (pause) So, you are wanting this bag in Salt Lake City, correct?
Me: (very frustrated) Can you just transfer me to the baggage claim desk in Denver.... please?
India: So, so sorry Mr Fruitloops, I do not have that number. In the meantime, I have sending a message to have your suitcase sent back to Washington for you. Have a nice day.
