FUN: “Customer Service”

FROM MY BORGATA FILE

Went for salads for lunch.

Amusing incident happened.

F said he’d buy the beer. He got hot stuff from the Japanese grill. We all got salads. (Ain’t I being dietetic? You’ll see when I am but a wisp of a boy. A figment of my former self.)

The guy at the Japanese grill told him that “no one sold beer in the food court”.

So F naturally believed him and bought what M calls “a fountain drink”.

A big one.

(Nice profit for the Japanese grill. Wonder if they have sales incentives for the shift? You’ll see why I ask that.)

Being a know-it-all, I went to the Philly Steak Sandwich place to confirm. Sure they still sold it.

Back at the table, F was annoyed. We razzed him about not wanting to pay for the beer.

I translated the “Japanese” for him: “I don’t sell beer and I don’t care what you want!”.

Everyone laughed.

ROFL!

ROFL?

OK, I guess you had to be there.

FUN: Leadership lesson; make sure you get EVERYONE’S requirements

Tuesday, March 30, 2010

A clergyman walking down a country lane and sees a young farmer struggling to load hay back onto a cart after it had fallen off.

“You look hot, my son,” said the cleric. “why don’t you rest a moment, and I’ll give you a hand.”

“No thanks,” said the young man.

“My father wouldn’t like it.”

“Don’t be silly,” the minister said.

“Everyone is entitled to a break. Come and have a drink of water.”

Again the young man protested that his father would be upset. Losing his patience, the clergyman said, “Your father must be a real slave driver. Tell me where I can find him and I’ll give him a piece of my mind!”

“Well,” replied the young farmer, “he’s under the load of hay.”

ROFL. (Well, I found it funny!)

FUN: by their limping

Sunday, March 28, 2010

http://www.irishcentral.com/saint_patricks_day/Irish-sayings-proverbs-and-prayers-for-Saint-Patricks-Day-88201577.html

May those who love us, love us.
And those that don’t love us,
May God turn their hearts.
And if He doesn’t turn their hearts,
May he turn their ankles,
So we’ll know them by their limping.
