Who is John - what are the irate parents going on about - and how did you find Fornits?
Went back to page one and found this:
John Fountain, director of Eagle Point,. . .
So its this John?
I'm sorry - but this is too funny.
He had to change his number and you got stuck with it?
Really - fill us in on what the people are saying - save the messages please!
Pass them onto ISAC.

OK, yes, that is the John I'm talking about. So far the parent that I talked to yesterday was the first to really tell me who John is. As for the massages, they have been deleted b/c usually they are just anoying more than anything. I got voice mail just for the purpose of being able to have an outgoing message for these people to hear and maybe get the point that it is NO LONGER JOHN'S PHONE NUMBER. Some people do not listen to it apparently and leave me messages anyway. Most of the calls are from kids calling and hollering stuff that you can not really understand mixed in with a name or two. I figure they are prank calls.
One from a parent that I received back in late April was from a mother saying that if he (John) did not call her back she was flying some guy (she said a name) out to see about her kid. That she had called the office and no one there would tell her anything and she was tired of this. Of course I had no clue what the heck she was talking about b/c I had just gotten the phone number. I was polite enough to call her back to tell her that she had called the wrong number. She said, "Oh, I just thought that you were Johns new wife or soemthing." I was just nice and said "No mam, I don't even know who John is. Since your matter with him sounded pressing I figured you would like to know that you had not reached him. It is really none of my business, but since I received your message I thougth it would be decent of me to let you know." She had a bit of an attitude with me, but I look at it as informing her of her mis-information so she could rectify her situation. I would hope that someone would have done the same had I been in her situation.
One caller did ask me if I knew John's new phone number....hello? who the heck is John? You know more that I do on that matter kid. I literally had to spell it out for him b/c he was not getting the fact that I have nothing to do with man other that having the misfortune of getting his darn old phone number!!!
Yesterday when I talked to the man who explained to me who the mystery John is I decided to Google this school and see what I could find. I found you all here, so I figured I would try to get the word out that he doesn't have that # anymore. Usually if I get an out of state call that I don't recognize I just let it go to voice mail now, I don't waste my time explaining.
My problem is that I'm in insurance and all these calls are anoying, as I never know if it is a customer calling or someone for good ole John. You might imagine how frustrating it can be. The calls seem to come in spurts. A few in a week and them none for a week or two. They are now starting to decline in numbers, so maybe in a few more months they will stop.
Thanks for listening to my ramble here! Looks like I had a lot to say...lol
