    The Reminder



    Had an enquiry for a new system so passed the details onto the tech guy at the wholesalers. It was one of those 'quote has to be by first thing monday' jobs so we needed the info to work on over the weekend...

    The enquiry came on friday morning and the details were passed on so that the systems could be sized etc, but by the end of the day nothing had been heard from the wholesalers and despite a series of reminders of the urgency of the quote being left on his voice mail no response was had

    Well monday morning came and we found a tearful message left on the mobile sometime on sunday, poor chaps marriage had come to an end and he wasn't in a fit state to do anything really

    There's always someone worse off somewhere.

    Than you best not venture too far from home desA. Does a nose-ring and leash mean anything to you?
    To the optimist, the glass is half full. To the pessimist, the glass is half empty.
