One
afternoon, following lunch, I was sitting with a client in a warm conference
room going through telephone bills for their hundreds of corporate
locations. It was tedious work and the
client talked non-stop in a low monotone.
In the
midst of all this, somehow, unintentionally, I fell asleep!
For
those who are not familiar with the business world, you should know that most
business experts recommend that you stay awake while talking with an important
client. (That’s a business tip for the
young people who may be reading this. No
charge! Hey, I’m glad to help.)
I was
only asleep for 10 seconds, or so, and fortunately the client was so busy with
his eternal monologue that he didn’t notice.
He even missed my very small amount of drool on his sleeve.
But I
learned a valuable lesson that day and thus began my deep and abiding love for
Mountain Dew.
