"Hello" on my cell, "Help desk, this is Rachael, how can I help you?" at work. Although I sometimes embarrass myself by doing the help desk thing on my own phone :\

Work and I don't know the number: "Firstname Lastname"
Work and I know the number: "Hey" or "Bonjour" depending on the person (and it's not a language thing)
At home, it's completely based on the person, though it is anything from "Hi" to "Whatup" to "What"

I'm worried about you!
So you hear voices and you think its from your phone?
On hook of off ???
So... how do you answer your refrig ?
Maybe try reasoning with it...

A fun one is to just pick it up and wait for the other person to start talking. If you're lucky, sometimes they think they got disconnected and just hangup without saying anything at all.
