The Mini Car Story
Thursday, July 14, 2005
This is about Butler...
He brought the Mini Car for check up in British Motors Garage.
After two hours he came back to fetch it, the Directrice (Manager) do not want to release it because Butler didnt have the money to pay. The bill is 73 euros.
Butler told her," send the Bill to my employer (he gave the name) and he will send you the check as usually done before". No. The Manager doesnt want to know. So Butler went home, and told our Boss about it. Boss went ranting ! "What ! They dont let you have back the Mini for 73 euros only? They dont know me? I bought that Mini from them ! And they always bill me by post when I have it checked!"
Butler shrugged! So Boss said, Okey, we go there together. Now.
According to Butler,when they arrived the Manager is hiding ! LOL
Boss do not want to talk to a secretary. Boss wants to speak with the Manager.
Manager is not around, the secretary said.
Boss asked where is she gone???!!!(pabagsak na tanong)
Secretary said, she doesnt know.
(Mind you, sabi ni Butler,she must be at the back of the door, listening! LOL)
Boss asked if the Mini is now okey for running. The mechanician was called, assured him it is, but also shaking.Lol.
Italians speaks with harsh accent, so it must be they are aware, Boss is really angry. LOL
Fault of the Manager, mind you.She must be coming from Bavaria, dont know the existing payment of checks by post office...
One do not treat a millionaire like that.For 73 euros, no release of his car, when he is buying from them a new one to replace it, as Madame would like a Mini with an automatic gear.
Eventually, Boss asked how much. (Same voice, na pabagsak/pasigaw!)
Secretary said, 73 euros.
Boss said to Butler, do you have the money? Butler settled the bill. Of course it is Boss' money he gave before hand.
Butler reported to me: I am the one paying, I got more money than the Boss !I even drive the Mini back!
Bof.(french reaction ko meaning, so what is it to me?)
I said:You know Butler ,I saw a lot of gardeners driving a Classic Jaguar or a Sport Ferrari..., Butler...
And they dont show the "feel " of it...So be quiet...". "Please."
Then I took the air freshener and spray the room.Psssk !Psssk !
He asked, "why you do that? What for?"
I said, "you stink the room, you got underarm odor, and I cant breath..."
He gaved me a look that could kill.
Totoo naman eh, amoy kilikili siya, lalo na summer ngayon, then galing pa siya sa labas!!?
Mauwian nga yan ng tawas from Pinas...
