OHHH..I Can't Believe How TABS FKED UP!!!!!
 
This really hurts...to admit it.

My neighbors have moved to a new home a short distance away as a result of their Construction Defect lawsuit. Nice new home on a golf course, anyway my neighbor wanted to buy a coupla fountains for the courtyards. So we went on down to the local purveyor of Fountains in LV.

After a short time we were approached by a Saleslady...Emma..on a scale of 1 to 10......she was an 11. A complete Natural Beauty as in ..OHHH GOD....about 25 years old and smart (she comes from Carmel, CA). She naturally catered to my friend Francis since he was the customer and I was just the purveyor of Style and Taste, but I got a couple of innings in of flirtering. So my friend Francis bought his fountain.

On Wednesday we went back to look for a 2nd Fountain. While Francis was off looking at something...our Saleslady aproached me. After saying a couple of words she steped into my zone and touched my arm. I froze because she scared me, and I let the moment slip away. Now in the scheme of things this doesn't mean *****, but ohhh do I feel like I fumbled the ball..

Sorry no pictures, you'll just have to believe me...There are women in the world who are beautiful but there is something missing. Very rarely do U run across a woman who is beautiful, smart and has a sense of style and taste which U can call sophistication.

Compose your self tabs and go back for a 3rd Fountain.

Tabby, it's called "Upselling".

RickM 02-03-2006 10:37 AM

....don't you need that water filter they were selling for one of the fountains? Carpe diem


(and don't forget the camera this time)

I think that's where the "sophisticated" saleslady helps you get it "up" before she "sells" you something...something you prolly don't need...but, man-oh-man, do you want it! LOL

When you go back be sure to bring your camera. This thread is useless without pictures.

I wasn't the one buying anything! Francis is a handsome Guy...who is 42 looks 34....and is into Martial Arts which keeps him in tip top shape. I have seen women fall over themselves when they spy him, and his wife is an ex-model. So this gal wasn't trying to sell anything to me.

I am old enough to be this gals Dad, so what am I going to do with a 25 year old...besides the obvious..which would probably kill me anyway.

What gets me is that I let fear stop me from talking a 1/4 step forward which would have let things play themsleves out...

We went shopping for some fabric to make a nice shower curtain a few years ago. Went to an upscale place, got stroked (i.e., ego) by a hottie trying to sell us the latest patterns etc. She had all the right moves, chatted me up about her motorcycle etc., batted her lashes, made sure to be "touchy"...blah blah blah. Turns out all told the material for the shower curtain would've ended up costing us $700. SEVEN HUNDRED DOLLARS.

I turned around and left. Of course having my wife there with me made it a lot easier! ;)

Way back I was buying a Mustang from the local Ford dealer. When I was hesitating on pulling the trigger they passed me to the hottie sales gal who closed the deal. Nothing else to say here.

Mena Suvari is one repellent, skeletal hag...uhggghhh

dtw has been drinking. Disregard his comment.

Sorry, anorexia does nothing for me. If you like pasty-skinned bodies with exposed ribs and a complete absence of breasts, why not hook up with some 10 year old boys?

Every time I see a picture of her I worry about the police banging down my door on a pedophilia rap:

Nothin wrong with that

it's ok if you like the fatties--no harm, no foul.

Upselling or not, ain't it great to feel ALIVE?

tabascobobcat 02-03-2006 05:05 PM

I'd hit it

Rodeo 02-03-2006 05:22 PM

Tabby, don't feel bad ... we've all stepped on our dic*s like that, some of us more than a few times. :)

nostatic 02-03-2006 05:24 PM

what would mother think?

Jeff Higgins 02-03-2006 08:56 PM

Reminds me of the old Dr. Hook song. "Necropheliacs looking for dead ones..." Yikes.

dd74 02-03-2006 09:50 PM

Eeek! It'd be like humping a cherub.

that's when you go into the deal looking only for a night of fun and leave with a mortgage, kids, and a minivan, all the while thinking "now how the fukc did that happen!??"

adomakin 02-03-2006 11:02 PM

Bingo! Am with a new crew and a couple of "very nice" flight attendents out of the UK. One of them an extremely good looking blonde with a very nice body.

They work two weeks on, two weeks off. During her off time, LeAnn has been trying to pick up some extra work as she is trying to buy a house. She was approached to do something like you are describing.

After doing it for a half of a day she quit. Came onboard for a flight with us and she was still steaming. "I am not going to take a job just to use my tits and ass to sell anything" was her exact comment. The owners of the business were hiring nice looking ladies to bring the guys in, then turned them over to fast talking salesmen to sell things.

Nice to see some ladies are smart enough to see through the ploy and not play along with people like this.
