I Just Found Out...
There is this guy, a customer, who is a bit of a problem. He seems to have trouble paying what's due, not that he can't, he just has trouble actually handing the money over. He has been a problem for a long time, nobody has any luck with him so I get him. His thing is he keeps you on the phone for a very, very long time, with him doing all the talking. Everybody in the office knows his entire life story, medical history included, but nobody cuts him off, they are too polite. I get him because I am told I'm not worried about appearing impolite. I call one time, Monday of this week, he starts with the whole " his life saga ". I say Mr. So & So, I understand you have had some problems and I do sympathize with you but I bet I can one up you, and I just start talking, he couldn't get a word in, when I was done I said have a good day and I hung up. Wednesday he came into the office, as soon as he opened his mouth I knew it was him. I said can I help you? He said " No, I just found out what your problem is " I was intrigued so I said " My problem?!" He said " Yeah I just found out" I said " What problem would that be?" He said " I just found out that you're a YANKEE" I just cracked up, so I sarcastically said Oh you just found that out what gave me away my heavy southern drawl? He looked puzzled and said " No, Lucian told me".
