god, i hate when business people are super *nosy* about someone they are calling for

my one boss is at the hospital today with his wife, as his wife is having surgery. his voice mail says to call me for immediate assistance. fine.

so, this guy just calls and asks if he'll be in today at all. i said i doubted it and he wasn't really reachable, so if it's urgent i can help him.

then it's all, "well, where is? is he out of town?"

me: "no, he's just not reachable today. i'm sure he'll call you tomorrow."

them: "is he at home, i have his home number somewhere, should i call him there?"

me: "no, he's not home. it's a personal matter, is there anything I can help you with?"

them: "is everything okay? blah blah blah".

DUDE, you are a business contact, you aren't on a social level, STOP PRYING.

super rude.
