HARD SELL By That Omega Kid
“Now boy, I can’t rightly agree with that point of view, but you do have a way with your fancy city boy language. So much so that I find myself persuaded by you. Now do you think that’s a wise way for me to do my business? Being sweet talked by some hot shot with a hard on for sugar-coated bullshit?”
“Sir, I applaud your sincerity and honesty, it truly moves me to know that good, old-fashioned countrymen like yourself haven’t been washed out with capitalism and greed”
Cyril’s grin tightens with cynicism , “Why thank you son”
“Please, it should be I that thank you. You see Mr. Walters, without your scepticism and doubt, without your total lack of confidence in our idealisms… my job would be impossible”
“Is that right…”
“Yes. In fact it’s a proven statistic that 85% of all business interactions are based on open and candid feedback from the consumer. With a statistic like that, I’d be an idiot not to address your concerns and fears in anything less than a concentrated and focussed way”
“Are you some sort of Red son??”
“Sir I can assure you I am no communist, a socialist perhaps, which is why I can relate to the working man, like yourself.”
“So you’re an everyman? That’s what you’re telling me?”
“My father told me once, ‘every man can be an everyman if he always considers every man’.”
“Oh for God’s sake, just sign me up.”
“Fantastic, that’ll be two dollars a week then and I’ll be able to deliver your morning paper every weekday direct to your door Sir.”
