Waikiki penthouse part 6

The sales people did not like me very much, they were used to pushing people around and getting their way and treated customers bad if they didnt buy. this was one of the top salesrooms in the U.S. I dont know much about business but there has to be a better way. I used to look up at them in awe and respect, the manager was making in one month what on my salary

would take a year. I thought they had the smarts, education and personalities i could never have. Familiarity breeds contempt--so aptly phrased by Ben franklin. and the more i studied them the less i respected them. I couldnt be pushed around and not because i was immune

but because of the right thing to do. One day they are screaming bloody murder because i was late delivering huge cash bonuses and the manager said to my boss he would lose a few of the best of his crew to the competition as a result. Thats the nature of fast paced tracks,they leave you lose 200,000 this month and you keep your assistant that you pay peanuts to. Drop what your doing and get to the office 10 min. ago was the call. Look boss, the hostess (a retired movie star) was worried about a family that left very very upset she thought she recognized the man as a important political figure from another state and she was right, i called a friend at the hotel

they were in and confirmed it and we decided to comp every single tour or whatever it took and i went over ,he wouldnt open the door. i pleaded with them to no end beggin for mercy finally they heard me out, she had been crying from the experience. Imagine very cultured people

of power and prestige hosting ambassadors, visiting with dignitaries world wide living in mansions and being treated like schnook moochers who just fell off a garbage truck-the lady was traumatized. i offered a personal tour of the island in a lincoln diamond jubilee edition towncar,

it had parfait diamonds in the opera windows--and complementary passes to the panorama air tour.

I will pick you up to take you to the airport you will have breakfast in kauai, lunch in maui and back in waikiki by 6 and i proffered all emolients i could, of course they could not be bought off with trinkets but at one point i made her laugh against her will...and he promised not to retaliate.

back at the office Mr. E was about to rip me a new one...he had someone call them and indeed

verified it and was surprised by my actions to ward off grave danger to his co.
