customers is funny

[carlteplitski]

Had a customer telling me how to find his place .  Go down ----- street to 
the exit , and drive 3 miles
till you get to ------- road. Down this road for 2 miles, turn left at that 
intersection. go 1 mile to the next
intersection and turn left at the corner where the church " used " to be. 
What's there now, I asked. Don't know,
I never go that way   !!!   I could have puked on my shoes.  It's funny now, 
but not then.

Carl / Winnipeg.
