Think Positive!

Ta to my friend Jill for this - she's less than ideally-employed at the moment...

 

 

 

This is something to think about when negative

 

people are doing their best to rain on your parade.

 

So remember this story the next time someone

 

who knows nothing and cares less tries to make

 

your life miserable.

 

 

 

 

A woman was at her hairdresser's getting her hair styled for a trip to Rome

with her husband..

 

She mentioned the trip to the hairdresser, who

 

responded:

 

" Rome ? Why would anyone want to go there?

 

It's crowded and dirty.. You're crazy to go to

 

Rome . So, how are you getting there?"

 

"We're taking Continental," was the reply. "We got

 

a great rate!"

 

"Continental?" exclaimed the hairdresser..

 

" That's a terrible airline. Their planes are old,

 

their flight attendants are ugly, and they're always

 

late. So, where are you staying in Rome ?"

 

"We'll be at this exclusive little place over on

 

Rome's Tiber River called Teste."

 

"Don't go any further.. I know that place.

 

Everybody thinks its gonna be something special

 

and exclusive, but it's really a dump."

 

"We're going to go to see the Vatican and maybe

 

get to see the Pope."

 

"That's rich," laughed the hairdresser. You and a

 

million other people trying to see him. He'll look

 

the size of an ant.

 

Boy, good luck on this lousy trip of yours. You're

 

going to need it."

 

A month later, the woman again came in for a

 

hairdo. The hairdresser asked her about her trip

 

to Rome .

 

"It was wonderful," explained the woman, "not

 

only were we on time in one of Continental's brand

 

new planes, but it was overbooked, and they

 

bumped us up to first class.. The food and wine

 

were wonderful, and I had a handsome 28-year-old

 

steward who waited on me hand and foot.

 

And the hotel was great! They'd just finished a

 

$5 million remodeling job, and now it's a jewel,

 

the finest hotel in the city. They, too, were

 

overbooked, so they apologized and gave us their

 

owner's suite at no extra charge!"

 

"Well," muttered the hairdresser, "that's all well

 

and good, but I know you didn't get to see the

 

Pope."

 

"Actually, we were quite lucky, because as we

 

toured the Vatican , a Swiss Guard tapped me on

 

the shoulder, and explained that the Pope likes to

 

meet some of the visitors, and if I'd be so kind as

 

to step into his private room and wait, the Pope

 

would personally greet me.

 

Sure enough, five minutes later, the Pope walked

 

through the door and shook my hand! I knelt down

 

and he spoke a few words to me."

 

"Oh, really! What'd he say ?"

 

 

He said: "Who cut your fecking hair?"
