"Big Man In a Small Town"
Joe grew up in a small town, then moved away to attend college and law
school. He decided to come back to the small town because he could be a big
man in this small town. He really wanted to impress everyone. So he returned
and opened his new law office.
The first day, he saw a man coming up the sidewalk. He decided to make a big
impression on this new client when he arrived. As the man came to the door,
Joe picked up the phone. He motioned the man in, all the while talking.
"No. Absolutely not. You tell those clowns in New York that I won't settle
this case for less than one million. Yes. The Appeals Court has agreed to
hear that case next week. I'll be handling the primary argument and the
other members of my team will provide support. Okay. Tell the DA that I'll
meet with him next week to discuss the details. "
This sort of thing went on for almost five minutes. All the while the man
sat patiently as Joe rattled instructions. Finally, Joe put down the phone
and turned to the man. "I'm sorry for the delay, but as you can see, I'm
very busy. What can I do for you?"
The man replied, "I'm from the phone company. I came to hook up your phone."
