How to impress a customer


Thought I'd share this with you as it made the JDK laugh when I told him this evening.

I had a meeting with a customer this morning, who has just given us about £75,000 to do some consultancy work. So I usher him into our meeting room and ask politely if he'd like a drink. He asks for tea, so I go out and make a cup of tea whilst my colleague gets the meeting started. I come back in with the tea and one of those little tiny cartons of milk, plus all the other accessories, even biscuits (no expense spared in our company!).

He thanks me and opens the little carton of milk and pours it into his tea.... well in fact what happened was that a small lump of rancid milk plops into the tea and makes a splash... ho hum... I think it could have gone better! ashamed

Nice! one of the advantages of my job is I tend to work in buildings with a Starbucks or the like - so we've abandoned those plastic thingies - never known one do that though! lol

Eww!  I can't stand the thought of gone-off milk - I'm even wrinkling my nose while I'm typing this.  I have the dubious ability of being able to tell when milk's about to turn when other people can tell anything's wrong, by smell and taste.  I suddenly feel quite ill.  bleh
