Stoner Buck$$: 1,106.37 | Tell us about a humours prank somebody pulled on you. Because my birthday is on a holiday I rarely work on it - especially if it falls on a weekend. But a few years ago my secretary informed me that an emergency repair job had come up and she had to schedule me for Saturday (my birthday) to do the repair as well as a bit of work. When I ask what the emergency was she said the sprinkler system had to be re-programmed before the plants dreid out - and I thought cool I can do that in 5 minutes and then when I asked what the bit of work was she said moving a load of bark mulch (with a wheel barrow).. Then I asked how big the load of mulch was and she said only 16 cubic yards (which is 1 & Ό dump trucks I knew the customers yard only took about 2 cubic yards of mulch so I ask her why they order so much mulch and she said because she gave them a material estimate over the phone then she said oh ya they cant get their car out of the garage until you move the pile so I assured them that you would be there bright an early on Saturday. I wanted to fire her but good secretaries are hard to find so I thought that I would teach her a lesson and I told her that she was cut off from my sexual favours for 2 weeks and I would fax her the details later - then I huffed out of the room. It turned out that my secretary (who also happens to be my wife) was just pulling a prank on me all I had to do on that Saturday was take 2 bags of bark mulch out of their trunk and re-set the sprinkler system. (so all the 2 lips that I planted would stay moist I mean so that all the tulips I planted would stay moist) plus the wife/secretary knew my customer had a birthday bonus and card waiting for me . Cheers!
