Upon arriving home, a husband was met at the door by his sobbing wife.
Tearfully she explained, "It's the druggist. He insulted me terribly this
morning on the phone. I had to call multiple times before he would even
answer the phone."
Immediately, the husband drove downtown to confront the druggist and
demand an apology.
Before he could say more than a word or two, the druggist told him, "Now,
just a minute, listen to my side of it. This morning the alarm failed to go
off, so I was late getting up. I went without breakfast and hurried out to
the car, just to realize that I'd locked the house with both house and car
keys inside and had to break a window to get my keys.
Then, driving a little too fast, I got a speeding ticket. Later, when I was
about three blocks from the store, I had a flat tire. When I finally got to
the store a bunch of people were waiting for me to open up. I got the store
opened and started waiting on these people, all the time the darn phone was
ringing off the hook.
He continued, Then I had to break a roll of nickels against the cash
register drawer to make change, and they spilled all over the floor. I had
to get down on my hands and knees to pick up the nickels and the phone was
still ringing. When I came up I cracked my head on the open cash drawer,
which made me stagger back against a showcase with a bunch of perfume
bottles on it. Half of them hit the floor and broke. Meanwhile, the phone is
still ringing with no let up, and I finally got back to answer it. It was
your wife. She wanted to know how to use a rectal thermometer. ....And
believe me mister, as God is my witness, all I did was answer her question.
