Peacock Humor Pen Why Americans Should
Never Be
The following are
actual stories provided by travel agents:
A nice lady just called. She needed to know how it was possible that her flight from Detroit left at 8:20am and got into Chicago at 8:33am. I tried to explain that Michigan was an hour ahead of Illinois, but she could not understand the concept of time zones. Finally, I told her the plane went very fast, and she bought that! A client called in inquiring about a package to Hawaii. After going over all the cost info, she asked, "Would it be cheaper to fly to California and then take the train to Hawaii?" I just got off the phone with a man who asked, "How do I know which plane to get on?" I asked him what exactly he meant, which he replied, "I was told my flight number is 823, but none of these darn planes have numbers on them." A woman called and said, "I need to fly to Pepsi-cola on one of those computer planes." I asked if she meant to fly to Pensacola on a commuter plane. She said, "Yeah, whatever." *A business man called and had a question about the documents he needed in order to fly to China. After a lengthy discussion about passports, I reminded him he needed a visa. "Oh no I don't, I've been to China many times and never had to have one of those." I double checked and sure enough, his stay required a visa. When I told him this he said, "Look, I've been to China four times and every time they have accepted my American Express." A woman called
to make reservations, "I want to go from Chicago to Hippopotamus,
New York" The agent was at a loss for words. Finally, the agent: "Are you
sure that's the name of the town?" "Yes, what flights do you have?"
replied the customer. After some searching, the agent came back with, "I'm
sorry, ma'am, I've looked up every airport code in the country and
can't find a Hippopotamus anywhere." The customer retorted, "Oh don't be
silly. Everyone knows where it is. Check your map!" The agent scoured
a map of the state of New York and finally offered, "You don't mean
Buffalo, do you?" "That's it! I knew it was a big animal!"
