    Wave Trouser guy

    Funny thing happened recently - a rep was scheduled to see me at 10am. He phoned just after 10 to say his trousers had just split down the back seam and did I know of the closest tailor? I said I've got a needle and thread, come on around and wait in our fields room while I sew them up. The funniest part was that his boss was joking with him the day before that if sales were slow he should start taking his clothes off. So while he waiting in the fields room in his jocks he sends a photo of himself to his boss saying - I took your advice!! I would have loved to see the look on his boss's face. I should have hit him up for a free frame! The Follow up to this story is that my non optical husband was wandering around the trade display at the ProVision conference last weekend and a rep started up a conversation with him. I came passed a couple of minutes later to see it was trouser guy and so said to my husband "this is the guy whose pants I had off in the practice!" - much laughter all round.
