Margaritaville

The agent for client A called me, he said, "There's 20 minutes of my life I can't get back..."

"So we have a go?" I stupidly asked.

"Not even close. It took him 10 seconds to say no and another 19 minutes and 50 seconds to explain why."

I thanked for his time and effort. Then I wished him well. This agent is a really nice guy. He told me he was turning off his phone and getting a margarita. He doesn't know this, but he would not have had a liver left if this sale went through, and not because of his client either. A cancellation is for the best.
