FIMM got a job as a repair technician for Acme Cable Company.  The company figured his lack of communication skills wouldn't affect his ability to repair cable problems.  It was a close vote by the board members.  It was three to three among his brothers.  The deciding vote was FIMM's father whose vote may have been a bit colored by his motivation to get FIMM out of the house and into his own apartment! 
 
 
FIMM: "I'm here about the cable modem, but I won't be able to fix it.  I don't know why they sent me."

Customer:  "So what am I supposed to do?  I haven't been able to get my email for days."
 
FIMM:  "Well, you can always get a FREE email service like Yahoo or Juno."

Customer:  "That is unacceptable.  I pay for this service!" 
 
FIMM:  "Technically you don't pay for email.  It's a bonus you get with your internet service."
 
Customer:  "Bonus?  Don't your customers expect email to come with their internet service?  I want to speak with your manager!"
 
FIMM:  "Well, I can have him contact you, but he probably won't be able to help you either."

FIMM has agreed to pretend he is mute from here on out...




Tune in next week for another episode of the Misadventures of Foot in Mouth Man!

About Me

I was raised by two Atheists of Jewish heritage, married a non practicing Catholic and became a non denominational Christian due, in part, to some Amway meetings and a Jehovah's Witness who came to my door. My purple crayon writes with humor and almost always a little out of the lines. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This blog is my creative and fun way of sharing my thoughts on communication skills relating mostly to homeschooling and sharing and defending the faith. It also reveals a bit about how the Lord took this shy Agnostic girl and allowed her to find her voice and her purpose, a zany voice to the Christian community with insight as to what unbelievers need to hear about Christ Jesus. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I'll share news items, quotes, family friendly humor, tips, trivia, and my newest feature: Question of the Week. I invite you to come share your thoughts! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For more creative fun with JoJo you can visit www.ArtofEloquence.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver." -Proverbs 25:11
