Seriously - Meter Reading

I had a phone this morning from the electricity company Npower one of their Meter Reader operatives was outside the office where I work but couldn't gain access to read the meter. Obviously, because of COVID, we are all working from home, so that's why nobody is there. The chap asked if anybody could let him in and I offered to have somebody there for 10 am the following day and promptly emailed the Director.

Me: 📨 "Can you be at the office tomorrow? The Npower chap rang, and he wants to read the meter."

Director: 📩 "Pete, I did the On-Line submission last week!"

Me: 📨 "Well, all I know is he rang and wanted to read the meter."

Director: 📩 "Pete, here is a copy of the On-line confirmation!"

Me: 📨 "OK, but as I said, all I know is he rang and wanted to read the meter."

Director: 📩 "Pete, I've done the On-line submission and had the confirmation. Why does he want to read the meter?"

Me: 📨 "I've no idea. Tell you what, here's his mobile number, ring him and ask."

A little while later

Director: 📩 "Pete, he's happy with the On-line reading."

I have no idea why he was moaning to me? I didn't want the meter read!
