The Voice on the Answering Machine
The Voice on the Answering Machine
My former boss and I parted on unfriendly terms more than six months ago. But I recently discovered that the company is still using my voice on its answering machine. I don’t feel comfortable with this. How do I get my voice off that tape?

It’s like watching reruns of “Sex and the City” now that we know that Carrie and Samantha hate each other in real life, right? Your request is reasonable. Probably, no one at the company remembers it’s you — or can figure out how to change the message, if they do. Send your old employer a friendly note: “Hope you’re doing well, Boss Man. Now that I’m gone, please take my voice off your answering machine.” Anonymous That should do it. If not, ask for royalties. Start with a million bucks and negotiate down.[Photo via]
