I work in a building that is connected to another building by a skybridge. The two buildings have different zip codes. I thought it was weird at first, but then just accepted it. Then I mentioned it to jennywrenn and she said it really is weird. So...

When we still had two phone lines (when we got cable internet the 2nd was no longer needed), they were on two different minor exchanges. The first 3 digits were the same, but we could have one line go out and the other still work, as the phone lines to our street (small, dead end, with about 15 houses) was at the split of the two phone line wires. Since we had the 2nd line put in WAY after the first, we ended up with this split. It is REALLY WEIRD to call the phone company to tell them your phone isnt working (well, i guess now with cell phones it isnt so weird.). My mom would have to start with "we have two phone lines on different wires, and ONE is out." I always wanted to call and say "hi, i'm calling to say my phone doesnt work."
