GtUpon arriving home, a husband was met at the door by his sobbing wife.Tearfully she explained, "It's the druggist.
He insulted me terribly thismorning on the phone.
I had to call multiple times before he would evenanswer the phone." Immediately, the husband drove downtown to confront the druggist anddemand an apology. Before he could say more than a word or two, thedruggist told him, "Now, just a minute, listen to my side of it. Thismorning the alarm failed to go off, so I was late getting up. I wentwithout breakfast and hurried out to the car, just to realize that I hadlocked the house with both house and car keys inside and had to break awindow to get my keys.
Then, driving a little too fast, I got a speedingticket. Later, when I was about three blocks from the store, I had a flattire.
When I finally got to the store a bunch of people were waiting forme to open up. I got the store opened and started waiting on these people,and all the time the darn phone was ringing off the hook "Then I had to break a roll of nickels against the cash register drawer tomake change, and they spilled allover the floor. I had to get down on myhands and knees to pick up the nickels and the phone was still ringing.When I came up I cracked my head on the open cash drawer, which made mestagger back against a showcase with a bunch of perfume bottles on it.Half of them hit the floor and broke.
Meanwhile, the phone is stillringing with no let up, and I finally got back to answer it. It was yourwife. She wanted to know how to use a rectal thermometer.
"And believe me mister, as God is my witness, all I did was tell her." |
