Don't Push It
I have an acquaintance, D, who makes a living selling exotic (illegal) animals.
He has taken to calling me frequently, expecting me to be interested in whatever overpriced "stock" he has in hand.
Today he called in the afternoon and chatted with me. Was rather surprised. It was very out of the blue. Furthermore, he's more of my dude's friend rather than mine.
In the evening he called me again. This time round, he urgently informed me that he had a kangeroo on hand. So as a courteous gesture, i told him that i would ask my friends whether they were interested.
In the next half an hour, he called me numerous times, call shortly after another call.
I did have a friend, Ed, who was interested but found the price over his budget.
With this, D bombaded me with even more calls.
D revealed that the AVA was checking up on him because some big mouth had spilled the beans on him and he needed to get rid of the kangeroo desperately.
Im irritated by the calls.
He's irritating me by calling and calling non- stop.
And the details he reveals about the kangeroo are rather ambiguous.
I asked whether it was a wallaby and he said no. Its a type of dwarf kangeroo.
I've been to Australia for god knows how many times and i've never seen a dwarf kangeroo before. Don't like it that he cant tell me the scientific name.
And he considers 2 yrs old to be a baby. Bullshit.
My friend is very interested though. Hope he doesnt buy it.
(But if he gets it i'll still hop over for a look cos it sounds cute)
D is a pushy man and Ed is a very nice man.
So im afraid Ed would get cheated or something.
Because then, it'll be my fault and i'd feel so damn bad.
Small world though, I've been to D's supplier shop in KL before with Ed and company.
Of cos, D claims only he can get such a good price from the supplier.
BULL.
WAT A LOAD OF BULL.
