[QUOTE="RSteve, post: 562452, member: 164"] [SIZE=5]There's a classic story, which may or may not be true. A manufacturer's representative for a line of hardware was obligated by his company to "visit" a potential client in Rapid City, South Dakota, a couple of times a year, to show his line of products. This went on for many years and not only was there never a sale, but the "client" always had critical comments for everything in the product line. After many years of no success, the salesman went to the business and asked to see Mr. Kraemer, the owner, who had always criticized his product line and never bought anything. The receptionist said, "I'm sorry but Mr. Kraemer has passed away." The next day, the salesman returned and once again asked to see Mr.Kraemer. The receptionist, once again said, "Perhaps, I wasn't clear, our founder, Mr. Kraemer is at peace with the Lord." The following day the salesman returned. The receptionist was not gentle. "I told you, Mr. Kraemer has passed away. Do you understand, he has died. He's dead!" To which the salesman replied, "I just like to hear you say it."[/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
