Such fun had I. / myLot

I’ve just serenaded a young lady from South Africa and she was not pleased. She called me asking all manner of impertinences regarding my car finance (which I’ve never had). She was obviously new to the job and stuck nervously to her script, refusing be deflected by my own impertinence. She introduced herself as Lucy and when I said I wouldn’t give out my personal information to a stranger she sounded kind of stuck, but soldiered on regardless. I asked her what company she worked for and she told me it was based in Capetown so I asked if she had ever been up Table Mountain. This really flummoxed her so I sang her a wee song but she was still on the line when I finished! At that point I excused myself and said I was off to the toilet for a while. The poor girl.

I received a call from my bank yesterday..the lady was asking some personal questions. I was wary at first but when I checked the phone number, I knew it was real. She was really nice and professional and we ended up talking for like 20 minutes. She told me that after the call, a voice will ask me to rate her and I told her I was gonna give her 5 out of 5. She was really appreciative. The voice came up and gave her 5 out of 5. I just don't want people losing their jobs because of me and she was really nice ànd professional
