Pardon Me, Do You Have Any Grey Poupon?

Do you remember these commercials? Well, we are old enough to remember these commercials and we just assume everyone will know what we are talking about and laugh hysterically when we pull up to them and ask the famous question......note to self ..not the case.

One of my clients was walking to her car and I pulled up beside her and asked the famous question, she looked at me with big eyes and said "you have got to be kidding me....how the heck did I get poop on me? Where is it? I don't want to get it in the car? Great, do you have a napkin or something so I can try to get it off."....she said more but this is all I can remember. I was so shocked by her reaction that it took me a minute to process what was happening, I tried to explain, then I started laughing so hard I was crying. My client did not... I repeat ...did not find it as funny as I did. I think all I got was a courtesy laugh and I'm sure that was just because I apologized profusely.

I could be wrong, but I don't think I will be hearing from her again real soon. Glad we already sold her a house as it just might be the last one we sell her. :)

Bwahaha! How could she not know what you were talking about. Good lord, unless she was twenty years old she should know that. Hehehe. Ryan and I used to drive around asking people that when I first got my license. And, if I remember correctly, Kelly used to actually have Grey Poupon in his glove box just in case anyone ever asked him. LOL!
