Every once in a while funny stuff happens at work, even in the leasing business. Yesterday I conferenced a rather unexpressive client in over the phone, connecting with the voicemail of a credit manager, to do a verbal confirmation of equipment delivery — usually the last step in completing a file and starting the lease. Here is the email I received this morning:

Hi Frank:  I got the voice message from you and Charlie. It made my day.  Your “instead of a grunt, can you put that into a sentence?” was absolutely hilarious. Then his part about “well the battery didn’t work” was great. I didn’t know whether to erase or post it on u-tube. Anyway it does count as a verbal delivery. Nobody could fake that.

Thanks for the laugh.
