• Bob-isms – Funny Read

    I was mowing the yard last Saturday morning when my neighbor informed me that her fiancé had had his garage floor coated. Having an acute interest in this subject, I asked who he made his purchase from.
    “Some guy he found in the Arizona Republic. He was so cheap that Bill, name changed to protect the innocent,
    couldn’t pass him up.”

    Now I’m getting the picture. “Did he grind his floor?” I asked. “Nope, he just washed it out with a hose” she told me. “Warranty?” I say....“Don’t know. Why all the questions?” she asks. My response, "Well, there’s a lot of people putting floors down out there, and just like the girls in the bar at closing time, they all look pretty much the same. It’s even all pretty much the same stuff in the bucket. “

    She asks me "So what makes Premier Garage better? I know it costs more but what’s the difference?” My response, “Bill’s a car guy, right? Works in his garage? Spills stuff in the floor? He also has a dirt bike right? Did Joe-Pick-Up-Truck ask him any questions about what he expected from his new floor?”
    “I don’t understand, Bob?”

    "These questions are part of the knowledge needed to lay a complete flooring system. If Joe didn’t ask, it’s probably because he’s just a floor painter rather than a flooring expert.”
    “Bill’s gonna be pissed.”
    “Well, he wouldn’t go to a carpenter to get his broken leg fixed would he?”

    "Why not show him what you think he should have done at PremierGarage.com. He should get used to you being right anyway. “
