Today my dear hubs called home to check in and share a short story…
He works for ABF Freight and is what’s called a “City Driver” meaning he makes local deliveries and pick-ups. On one of his regular stops a woman was apparently having a bad day. Upon his arrival, she stated:
“Why the H3LL do all you G-D truckers make your F-ing deliveries on Thursday?”
To which he replied:
“…because we know that’s when you’re at your best and most efficient!”
Silence.
And then a grin.
Now, she LOVES my husband and is looking forward to seeing him next Thursday. LOL! Sometimes saying something nice can shock any ‘ole grouch into being your buddy. 🙂
Expect More? Extreme Makeover: Home Edition does
The Extreme Makeover: Home Edition team has to accomplish in days what usually takes months. So it is no wonder they rely on ABF for freight transportation and logistical support. When people expect more, they call ABF. |
