The Check Maker works for a company that manufactures personal checks. I asked him what was the funniest personalized-check request he'd ever received.
"Probably this guy who made us write 'You're in America...now speak English' on the top of all his personal checks. I mean think about it--he is racially insulting the person he is giving both his name, address and checking account number to!"
Hilarious!
"The biggest mess up I've ever seen is when a lady called in and asked that her personal checks have the word 'Mrs. So-and-so' printed as her name. She ended up with checks that said 'Mistress So-and-so.' Needless to say, she was furious!"
Laughing at someone's funny story turns them into a hero for a second. In conversation, the most important thing is to make the other person feel important.
Where are you finding these people?!
