1,000 points to Ryan Stiles for the whole “tall” thing
I’m typing up a pamphlet on selling strategies for work, and I hit this passage:
Client: How soon can you get us the product? Seller: What time schedule would be suit your needs?
… and I’m immediately thinking, “Look, it’s the Question Game!”
Client: Are you sure you understand my needs? Seller: Have I given you reason to think I don’t? Client: Can’t you see I’m a little uncomfortable with this purchase? Seller: How can I alleviate your discomfort? Client: Can I have a cookie? Seller: What kind of cookie would you like?
… and so on, and so on.
Someone told me yesterday about a website I needed to check out. Now, if I can only remember which site, or even who it was.
Client: Could I have a Thin Mint?
Seller: Do I look like a Girl Scout to you?
Client: Do you always wear the uniform?
Seller: Do you like it?
Client: Do I have to answer that?
(Sorry, I couldn’t resist. 😀 )
