A travel agent looked up from his desk and
noticed an older woman and an older man
peering in the window at the posters showing
the glamorous destinations around the world.
The agent had had a very good week and
seeing the dejected couple gave him a rare
feeling of generosity.
Calling the
couple into his shop he said, "I know that
on your pension you could never hope to have
a holiday, so I would like to send you to a
fabulous resort at my expense and I will not
take no for an answer."
He then had his
secretary write two flight tickets and book
a room at a five star hotel. The couple
gladly accepted and were on their way.
A few weeks
later, the lady returned to the agent's
shop.
"So, how did
you enjoy your holiday," the agent asked
eagerly.
"The flight was
very exciting and the room was beautiful,"
she said. "I've come to thank you, but there
is one thing that puzzled me. Who was that
old man I had to share the room with?" |
