One of our F/deck crews called us in on the Company frequancy. Whilst awaiting our response, KLM were calling up "Kelsay Company" in AMS and speaking in dutch.
Our driver then comes back on to say that there must be a problem with our frequency as he just heard some foreign a/c calling on it.
We then had to explain to him that it isn't just our dedicated frequency, and about 5 other companies all share it a various airports across the Uk/Ireland/Europe.
Radio then went silent as he realised how all the other airports/companies on that freq just heard him make a prat of himself !.
I know it's sad and petty, but I'm sure you dispatchers/ramp agents all agree when you have a real
of a Captain that there is nothing more satisfying than that feeling you get just after making them look like a prat.
