The cell phone solution

Hello!


Well it's the last time I'm going to go out of my way to help another human being. Let me elaborate on my phrase...


Yesterday my bath guy seemed to be in another world, quiet, worried, not his usual self. Well it seems that his separation, his physical separation, from his girlfriend is not going as planned. Apparently the guy has a very tough time making end of the week. He is working overtime to make up the cash that his girlfriend brought to the house, he’s doing extra work or he has signed up for on-call labour. The bad thing about this is that he has no cell, so if he gets a call and doesn't pick it up on time the work goes to somebody else and he loses ca$h. So he was looking for a cheap cell phone and a no contract solution but $35 dollars was too much for him, so he asked me what I had done with my old cell phone. I told him that I had it somewhere around and if he was interested I would have my wife look for it so that he can have it, he was thrilled! Okay no sweat, I asked my wife and older daughter to look for the phone, they did and after a while they found it. Now here's the sad part, I have the phone and he said he was going to call me yesterday night, it didn't happen, I called this morning to his boss asking her to have my bath guy called me and has he called me yet? Nope! I guess the phone goes back to gathering dust. So as you can see I tried to do something good but it didn't work out, I wasn't even going to charge the guy it was a freebie gone wrong... So don't ask me for my old iPad because I'm not going to give it to you!


Sorry, it must be the caffeine. I had 2 cups of coffee this morning with bagels with cream cheese and pastrami; I guess I'm getting old. It could be also that I fell asleep near the patio door where the sun hit my brain too long and it probably fried it, I usually stay on the Sun for a bit to get some vitamin D which apparently we MS people lack.


Oh well, his lost!
