lately? I kind of drifted away for a while and I am way to busy at work to read this forum so this is the first time I have dropped in. Who has bought what? Who moved to what store? I see Jmonroe bought a Genesis not really a surprise to me. Who else bought interesting new cars? |

You oughta know there ain't no such thing as a "free lunch". You probably know more than you should already.  Stick around, jmonroe |

Replying to: boomchek (Jul 06, 2009 10:10 am) Many years ago, we knew a couple who fell in love with a house. They couldn't really afford it, but went on with the purchase. After moving in, they had a big party for all of their friends. The first floor of the home was beautifully furnished. We were all very impressed. During the party, I needed to go to the bath room. Since the one on the first floor was being used, I asked if I could use one of the baths upstairs. All of the upstairs rooms had the doors open. I couldn't help but notice that the master bedroom and those for the three children all contained only sleeping bags. There were no beds, dressers, chests, or chairs. We later learned that the couple falsified free lunch applications for their three children. Two years later, the wife was charged with embezzlement at the bank where she was employed. The bank discharged her but never pressed charges. Unfortunately, there are people who will go to any lengths to have a material possession. It is a sad indictment of how some people view the priorities in life. On a lighter note, I noticed the nicest expression in your writing. You used the phrase "When I serve them payments...". It reminds me of dining in a fine restaurant, or being waited upon in a nice men's store. The phrase appears to have a touch of British influence. Regardless, it is a nice way to describe your sales transactions. Thank you again for the sales story. Richard

Replying to: british_rover (Jul 06, 2009 5:38 pm) Welcome back BR...the door is always open if you want to return..... You must have a few good sales stories to relate from over the past few months. Yes, we have sold a few cars here over the past few months. What are you selling these days? Give us at least one good story!
