I’m thinking our printer was eavesdropping on my phone calls. Shouldn’t be possible as all of the printers are on a “virtual LAN” and the VoIP phones are also a separate virtual LAN. But then, they all share the same physical cables and routers…
I had a phone call this morning from the company contracted to do our printer maintenance to let me know that someone from that company will be calling me to schedule the annual printer service.
Side note - Why couldn’t this person do the scheduling? Guess the schedulers are so busy with scheduling that they need someone to make calls announcing impending scheduling. Here’s a clue - this is an office building. Show up anywhere between 8AM and 5PM on any day other than Saturday or Sunday, and someone will be here to point out the printers. They’re not hard to find - big beige blocky things with cartons of paper stacked nearby. We haven’t moved them from where you worked on them last year.
Not five minutes later, the printer, two cubes away, informs me that it heard my conversation about how someone will be coming soon to put their cold hands into the printer’s innards to blow out the toner crumbs and polish the duplexer spindles.

Sounds like it doesn’t appreciate the idea much at all.

Nope. It’s not happy. Perhaps I should call the impending scheduler announcer and ask them to have the actual scheduler call me sooner? 
I tell ya, these things have ears!
