Mother of the year goes to....

As part of my profession, I am required to make at least 30 phone calls a day. I talk to a lot of different people all over the country. Yesterday, I spoke to one of my clients in the mid west. About 10 seconds into our conversation, she said "I have to keep this short, my daughter got a pebble in her ear and I'm waiting for my husband to get home to help me get it out." Apparently, her 5 year old daughter thought it was a good idea to put a small rock in her ear.

What makes this story even better? The woman told me that, in an effort to get the rock out, she tried using her vacuum to suck it out!!! Are you kidding me? Who uses a vacuum to get a rock out of a small child's ear???? She said "I thought it would work...I have a Bissell, so you know it's got a strong suction."

Wow. I really don't have any other words....

Happy Wednesday!

*laughing* Awesome. Did you put that note in the comments of the account to warn other sales reps that might ever have to talk to her?

You know, I'm pretty sure I did! I wish I could remember what account that was now!
