Would you like a ferris wheel in your backyard?
As most of you know, I work for a catalog company taking orders over the phone. I had a very pleasant conversation with a customer tonight. Sometimes you get a good customer... someone with whom you can joke around and have fun... which is way better than people screaming in your ear over $.53 of tax or hanging up on you, etc. My customer tonight was from Texas and he was telling me how he was crying in his yard because it was SO cold... that he has a built in pool but can't swim in it since it was TOO cold... he said he couldn't afford to heat it... and since he was worried about the total of his order, didn't look like he was going to get a heater any time soon... Mr. Texas went on to tell me that his backyard was quite lovely... he loved his backyard and he had great neighbors too... but he's always trying to think of what could make it even BETTER and all he can come up with is getting an 8 car ferris wheel... I mean, isn't that obvious? Doesn't EVERYONE want a ferris wheel in their backyard? Well, I told him that if he couldn't afford to heat his pool, he probably wouldn't be able to get the ferris wheel...
