Guest: (whiny soccer mom) yea Dave, I want more info on your island
Me: would you like me to send you a brochure?
Guest: (huffing) No, I want you to tell me about it
Me: what would you like to know?
Guest: well I mean does it have a beach?
Me: yes ma'am
Guest: is the sand gritty or is it a more smooth sand?
Me: smooth probably
Guest: well you dont sound very confident in that, can you confirm that with someone else?
(put her on hold for a few seconds pretending to ask someone)\
Me: yes it is smooth
Guest: Ok.....East vs. West Beach
Me: what about them?
Guest: I want you to tell me why I would prefer one over the other
Me: I guess a lot of people like the East Beach better because of the park and playground
Guest: I want to hear your thoughts
Me: I think east beach is probably nicer
Guest: why?
Me: I just like that part of the island
Guest: how do you justify saying you like that part of the island?
Me: justify it?
Guest: yes
Me: I dont know how to justify it.....I just like it better
Guest: this is not what I am looking for..........you dont sound very enthusiatic about it. I would suggest you find a new job
A new job? Where I dont have to deal with people like you? That would be heaven on Earth
