Our heartfelt thanks to Sylvia Barry (Realtor, MAS, ePRO, Agent, Marin County, CA) for sharing this joke with us online. (Reminds us all to keep our egos in check!)
A young broker had just started his own real estate office. He rented a beautiful office and had it furnished with antiques.
Sitting there, he saw a man come into the outer office. Wishing to appear the hot shot, the broker picked up the phone and started to pretend he had a big deal working.
He threw huge figures around and made giant commitments. Finally he hung up and asked the visitor, “Can I help you?”
The man said, “Yeah, I’ve come to activate your phone lines.”
