This is just a silly little story, but one of the stories that was a little funny was before working there, I had so many things themed with Michael Jackson.
He used to be the background picture on my phone and computer and everything. And I was like, ‘hmmm, better change all this. Which is probably for the best anyway. I’m not like teenybopper mega fan anymore. (Or at least, I shouldn’t be.)’ So, I changed everything out.
BUT the thing I FORGOT was my ringback tone.
For anyone who doesn’t know, a ringback tone was where the person calling you would hear a little song instead of the sound effect of the phone ringing.
Mine was set to P.Y.T.!
One of the Jacksons called me for something. And they commented, “oh, you have Mike on the ringback tone! That’s so nice you’re getting in the spirit!”
And it’s like… yep. That’s me… Getting in the spirit. Definitely did that because I’m excited about the show, not because I’ve loved Michael Jackson from before I could speak.” Tehehehe
