Am I a Sucker?
Yesterday afternoon, I was enjoying a refreshing popsicle on the back porch with my girls. Kevin had just returned home from work and entered the house through the basement door. He later joined us (as he usually does), but this time brought a guest with him. I was surprised to see a cute, "tanned" college boy following my husband onto the porch. Did I mention the boy was a salesman? My husband hates door-to-door salesmen, as do I. (Sorry to those of you who may find yourself in this profession - but I usually give a quick, "No thanks," and close the door.) Anyway, he proceeds to tell us about the product he is selling (children's books from the Southwestern Company). Now let me first say that my children do NOT need any books! I am a school teacher and of course, offer lots and lots of books for their reading pleasure. But I couldn't tell this boy no! He explained he was using this job to get experience in being a salesman because he wanted to be a pharmaceutical salesman for Pfizer. They promised him a job interview if he followed through with this job of selling books over the summer. I bought his story, hook-line-and-sinker and purchased $75.00 worth of children's books that I did not need. Am I a sucker, or what? By the way - my husband was also okay with this purchase.PS - My 6th wedding anniversary is coming up...any suggestions for a "day" trip to celebrate?
