A drunk rang Dublin airport and asked
“How long does it take to fly to New York from Dublin?”,
“Just a second” replied the receptionist,
“Thank you” said the drunk and hung up.
Having worked for Ask The Answer now for sometime I can quite honestly say that I have never enjoyed a job more. Everyday you are helping and giving advice to people and in my case through the Tarot cards and clairvoyance. I cover a very wide structure of life from relationships, love, money and careers etc, gently guiding an individual through their path in life that at time I am told can feel all too much.

“I’ve been sitting here for two days now waiting for you to send me two men that you promised me earlier in the week, not a sausage, where are they?”I felt like saying
“OK, I give up where are they!”“Are you listening to me girl”“Oh I’m listening, believe you me I’m listening…I promise” I replied.
“You know who I am, you have my account details, this is the third time I have had to ring you, you call yourself an efficient company and your not”“Look” I began patiently,
“I think you have the…”“Don’t you interrupt me, I’m talking. Your company needs a dam good shake up. If I was running it there would be some big changes”“Yeah, they’d all leave” I muttered under my breath.
“What’s that? Speak up girl, I can’t hear you. I want to speak to your manager, put me through to him immediately” before I had time to say anything she announced
“There’s someone at the front door, that must be them” and hung up.
Well, as I always say
“You gotta laugh!” It would be great to hear from you; after all, it’s good to talk!
