Jamaicans. I think most people have the wrong idea about these people. Why, you ask, do I bring this little island up? Well the last three sales of mine (selling security systems) have been with Jamaicans. And let me tell you. Yes you. Let me just tell you, and you alone. They are some of the hardest people to sell to in the world. While we're on the subject, among hard demographics to sell would include (but are not limited to): Asians, Polish people, and people over 95 years old with greater than or equal to one hernia currently installed in their abdomen. And robots. Robots are way hard. Space dragons are equally surly and abrasive.
Yep, and last Tuesday I met a 95 year-old Polish space dragon named Edmund. What ensued on his doorstep was stuff of legend. The Guinness World Record Foundation declared the sentence Edmund spun as the most insulting chain of words ever recorded. He wove a string of profanity and vulgarity, that as far as we know, is still hanging in space over Lake Michigan. Edmund's wife is a Vietnamese robot. They have a son named Reginald.
Q: James? Are half the stories you tell true, or is the percentage even less than that?
A: The answer to that is relative.
