You’re not the only one. When I ask Siri to “CallBob,” she responds: “What do 
you want to know about Bob?” To this I respond, “Why didn’t you CALL Bob, you 
so and so”?
as long as I emphasize “Call Bob,” with a little pause after “Call,” she 
usually follows my instructions.

Oh well. You can’t win them all with every update.
