Pledge drive hilarity?

It should go without saying, but if you volunteer to answer phones during a radio station's pledge drive, take the phone calls without giggling.  Years ago, I called a station to make a pledge, and a volunteer could barely get through the name of the station when she answered because she was giggling so much.  She continued to giggle throughout the call, while asking, "What is your name?  What is your phone number?  What amount would you like to pledge?  Would you like a premium?"  I don't know if she'd just been told the world's funniest joke before answering the phone or if someone was making silly faces at her across the room, but her inability to get it together during the call made me wonder if the station really needed the money.
