This is how Amerigo's lucky (well, SOMEWHAT) day went...
Edited on Tue Aug-23-11 05:39 PM by pacalo
It didn't start off well -- Amerigo's faulty GPS had him going in the wrong direction.







So, having forgotten his cell phone at home, Amerigo stopped at a pay phone (which still exists in pacalo-world) to thumb through the yellow pages to double-check the address.







With 15 minutes to spare, Amerigo found his prospective client's home & proceeded to the backyard pool area as originally planned.







'Ooooweee! I had NO idea the interview was going to be THIS exciting!' thought Amerigo as he approached THIS...







The beautiful lady relaxing in the pool turned her head to see Amerigo standing there with a big silly grin on his face.

"Hel-looo," she said. "You must be here to see Mother." Then she looked past Amerigo.

Amerigo turned to look behind him...







Her commanding, self-assured voice was a carbon copy of the late actress Colleen Dewhurst’s. Its gravelly quality startled poor Amerigo.

"Well, hello, young man. You're right on time. I hope you have STRONG HANDS because I'm in the mood for a FOOT MASSAGE while we conduct the interview. It’s the perfect time because my corns are nice & soft after my swim."

Poor Amerigo.

Three hours later -- & what a GOOD SPORT-- a dazed Amerigo was told the good news: He's HIRED & his client wrote a HUGE check...







"Yippeeeee!"





Congratulations, Amerigo!!!

2. I knew you'd get the job!
And I bet your personality had a lot to do with it.
