Guy called in:

Guy: hello, i can't seem to login to the sql database, could you check if the ip whitelist went right? It's on the *names server* server.
Me: *checks if guy is calling from an authorized number* - nope.
Me: I'm sorry but you're not calling from an authorized number so I can't check that for you!
Guy: no you don't understand. I don't want any of this not-authorized bullshit, I just want a solution for this right now.
Me: and I just want you to call from an authorized number.

Yeah, I actually said that. He wasn't very happy 😅

I'm still employed by the way 🤣

    @linuxxx I aspire to be that level of petty. Most of the time, I'm too nice to do it though. Especially when I'm dealing with friends.

    Well there must be authorised numbers for a reason so it makes sense you wouldn't bypass it.

    Authorization by caller ID seems pointless when spoofing it is child's play.

    @fdgram

    Perhaps, but they agreed to it. Being unwilling to comply is pretty suspicious.

    @fdgram But someone first has to find out what those authorized numbers are though

    In your best automated machine voice say:

    I'm sorry the number you have dialed from is not an authorized number. Please hang up and dial from an authorized number. Switch zero one two.

    Last part is there to make it sound legitimate. 😂
