Boot to the Head
So, I get home and ofcourse, 5 minutes after I get here the phone rings.
Its some lady with a thick accent. Sometimes she sounds latin, other times she mutters and I swear she is speaking mandarin. She only gave me a first name so it was hard to judge, Shia (shee-Ah). so she starts telling me that I have been selected for a free trip.
Oh yeah. Just what I said. "Uh huh"
"basically you live down the street, Edward, and... " she trails off muttering.
Before I can say anthing she says, "we are giving you a free trip"
"really?".
"yes. we will buy the plane ticket and the room"
"Uh huh"... by now Im anxious for her to get to the punch so that I can get back to my soda. As I just got home and I have no idea wat Im doing for dinner.
"I bet you are thinking 'theres a catch' arent you, Edward"..
"Oh yeah. gotta be."
"sorta. yes. we dont want a credit card or a memebership. you dont pay us in cash.We need advertising. Thats where you come in."
"Eh? advertising?" Ofcourse my brain is now locked on scan and corrolate at tis point. There has got to be something in to this.
Just as I ask what doyou mean by advertising, she starts mutterring. I ask her what is she saying, and she doesnt answer me. I want to know whats the catch, and her not answering isnt helping...
I ask "are you there?" and she replies, "Look. its my first day.I need help"
A guy takes over, Anthony is his name he says. He tell me the name of the company and wher they are located. They are close. Like four blocks close.
He tells me the same thing Shia said. He asks where do I want to go. So I tell him. a cruise would be nice.
"Great. I have a 4 day cruise available"
"coo"
"Ok so we can set you up on a 4day cruise. and again no money and no memberships. we need someone to advertise by word of mouth for us. basically you tell 20 people about us and thats it. that should be pretty easy."
"No doubt. But that seems...."
"Yes, because I rather have people telling eveyone about us. then I get more business. so we gonna set you and... Um. are you married?"
"no"
"girlfiend?'
"Nope"
"somebody special at-all?"
"My computer"
"Your.. computer. Im sorry these are couples packages. But I tell you what, I will send you the package and the claim form. You get a chance stop by and pick up your free cruise package."
So there ya have it. I got snubbed because Im single.
Like because I not joined in Holy-headlock, Im second class?
WTF MATE?
