Eircom is the leading broadband service provider for Ireland. In early 2000 they hired me to be the voice of their auto attendant.
I was on a conference call when I was still working with MCI / Worldcom and someone that had been on the call contacted the head of the division to see if they would lease me to voice their phone system.
It always struck me as strange that I was tapped to do that, especially being American.
