On December 18th, we celebrate the unusual and little-known holiday called "Answer The Telephone Like Buddy The Elf Day." This quirky holiday is inspired by the beloved character Buddy from the classic Christmas movie "Elf," starring Will Ferrell.

In the movie, Buddy the Elf, who was raised in the North Pole and is unfamiliar with human customs, answers the phone in a department store by enthusiastically shouting, "Buddy the Elf, what's your favorite color?!" This unconventional greeting surprises and amuses the caller on the other end of the line.

To celebrate this holiday, participants are encouraged to channel their inner Buddy the Elf and answer their phones with the same level of enthusiasm and cheer. Instead of the typical "Hello" or "How may I help you," you can greet callers with Buddy's iconic line or come up with your own creative and festive phone greeting.

This holiday is a perfect opportunity to spread some holiday cheer and bring a smile to the faces of those you interact with over the phone. It's also a great way to add a touch of whimsy and fun to your day, especially during the sometimes stressful holiday season.

So, on December 18th, let your inner elf shine and embrace the spirit of Buddy as you answer your phone calls. Don't be surprised if your unique greeting sparks joy and laughter in those you speak with, making their day a little brighter. Just remember, the best way to spread Christmas cheer is answering the phone loud for all to hear!
