Funny story: I own a swimming pool construction company. Around 2008, his wife flagged down my construction superintendent in Nashville and told him that “they were interested in buying a pool slide”. My super said to call the office.
Kirk calls my office, this is on a Monday and says he wants a slide and wants it installed by Friday, kinda rude like. My office manager told him that there was no way we can get it done by Friday and he asked to speak to the owner. (I don’t like that dude anyway and we probably could’ve got it done by Friday but for some reason I felt like telling him no).
So I get on the phone and he says “I’d like my slide installed by this Friday”, in a somewhat entitled way.
I said “there is no way we can do it.”
Kirk says, “ This is Kirk Herbstreit” There was a 4-5 second pause
I say, “OK” 4-5 second pause
Kirk says,” Well if you can’t do it I’ll just take my business elsewhere“ (I can see the toddler stomping his foot)
I replied, “ good luck with that”, he hung up without even saying bye.
Good Times
