Kinda Funny Story

So the secretary for one of the partners at my firm just called someone to confirm that he scheduled a conference call for later today. When someone calls to do that, they have to leave the name of their firm in the email. Well apparently this guy mistyped (wishful thinking?) the name of his firm. So as I walk by her desk I hear "Ok Mr. XXX I just wanted to confirm your conference call for 3 o'clock and your time will be charged to the Bear Sterns account." I laughed.
