Have you ever had one of those conversations where you have no idea how to reply? I did with a client at CUPS yesterday:
Him: “Did you know that they serve cranberry juice at churches now?”
Me: “Oh, really?”
Him: “Yeah, I broke into a church to steal their wine and it was cranberry juice! It sucked!”
Me: “uh… You broke into a church?!?“
Perhaps not the most eloquent or appropriate retort.
What would you have said?
uhm! i dont know what to say!
LOL! That made me laugh so hard I snorted. :) What did the client say next?!
I don’t think he had a chance as another client started telling me how messed up that guy is and the guy started defending himself. He then asked me for a new backpack as he broke his carrying too many beers (I declined – I didn’t have any and if I did, I probably wouldn’t have given him one) and complaining *again* that the phone was taken away and how popular and important it was.
I have no idea what I would have said, but this made me laugh. Good thing I wasn’t the one there!
