I was out with a friend having dinner. We were catching up on a bunch of things. This guy is one of the busiest guys I have ever met. He's always balancing investing, full time work, relationships, and often part time jobs.
So we're dining and talking. Seems he's trying some type of multiple level marketing thing. He's always into something. When he's into something I mean it is his all. He goes to a downtown event where he sets up a booth to pass out his business cards. Some girl he met says that she would pass the cards out for him. So she takes a 4 inch stack and heads out. About this time he has finished his glass of water and asks the waitress to bring him another. He keeps talking.
The water arrives and the waitress sits it in front of me. Without really thinking I drink the water. He goes on to say, Ron, I think that girl is a hooker. Hmmm, well she would know about customer satisfaction then. He laughs. We talk some more. He calls for the waitress again to bring him some water.
The conversation continues. Apparently he is having a website built for his little multi-level business. The waitress arrives and sits the water in front of me along with my diet cola. I drink the water. He said that guy he knows is going to be off work for a hernia operation and won't have anything to keep him busy so he's going to build the site. Then adds he has a domain name.
Wait a second, Waitress could you bring me some water. Sure, on my way. He brings up the girl again that may be a hooker. She was dressed funny, maybe a little to revealing. The waitress arrives with the water and once again places it in front of me. Once again I drink it. I'm feeling a little slushy. He adds but she needed another stack of cards. He gives it to the girl and she passes them all out.
Wow am I thirsty, waitress could I have some water. On my way. He sees a fellow mason and they chat a bit. The waitress brings the water. Sits it in front of me. Gulp, chug. There's an inland sea in my belly. He finishes the conversation with his buddy. Then goes back to the multi-level business and then moves on to similar possible businesses.
BTW, waitress could I have some water? The conversation goes to his most recent relationship. No not the hooker. Some other girl he thought about marrying at one time. Then I guess there's an issue with her son. She calls him to complain about her son or to ask him to run her son around. The water arrives and you guessed it, she places it in front of me. Well it is very hot. I manage to get it down. I can now feel the rise and fall of the tides in my tummy.
Then there's a pause, He looks over at my side of the table. There's about 6 glasses full of ice. WTH, Ron you've been drinking my water! Oh, Sorry! I thought she had been bringing us both water out of courtesy. Poor feller was going to die of thirst in front of me while I was flush with the stuff.
