BG: I work at a yacht brokerage firm. We list and sell boats for owners who pay us to get past the looky-loos and tire-kickers (so to speak). MOST of the boats are at the owners' homes, not at our office/dock.
Saturday, lady (SC) calls.
SC: I want to find out if the XX foot XXX brand yacht is still available for sale.
Me: Yes, it is.
SC: Where are you?
Me: The office is off XX road in XX city.
CS: Ok. (hangs up)
Hour later she shows up, wanting to see the boat. Ok, let me get you the broker who can lead you to the owner's house to show you the boat.
SC: But you said the boat was HERE!!
Me: You asked if the boat was available, I said it was.
SC: You said I could some see it!
Me: I didn't get a chance. You hung up.
SC (to husband): I didn't even think to ask if we needed an appointment.
BINGO. No, you didn't.
Broker gets the keys and off they go to see the boat.
Then, when he gets back, I GET IN TROUBLE FROM THE BOSS FOR DEFENDING MYSELF!! APPARENTLY THE LADY BITCHED ABOUT ME BEING "RUDE" TO HER!
I am so over people.
