One Tough Pressure

Mr Big Shot

Question

MR BIG SHOT:

Joe grew up in Sudbury, then moved away to attend college and law school.

He decided to come back to Sudbury because he felt he could be a big shot

at home. He really wanted to impress everyone, so he returned and opened

his new law office.

The first day, he saw a man coming up the passageway. He decided to

make

a big impression on this new client when he arrived. As the man came to

the door, Joe picked up the phone. He motioned the man in, all the while

talking. "No. Absolutely not. You tell those clowns in Toronto that I

won't settle this case for less than one million. Yes, the Appeals Court

has agreed to hear that case next week. I'll be handling the primary

arguments and the other members of my team will provide support. Okay,

tell the Crown Attorney that I'll meet with him next week to discuss the

details."

The "conversation" went on for almost five minutes. All the while the

man

sat patiently as Joe rattled instructions. Finally, Joe put down the

phone and turned to the man, "I'm sorry for the delay but as you can see,

I'm very busy. What can I do for you?" The man replied, "I'm from Bell

Canada and I came to hook up your phone.
