MisterMunshun: I used to be a telemarketer, working for the
Shriners. I'd call people up and try and get them to sponsor a
group of needy and handicapped kids from the Shriner's
hospitals to go see the circus.
MisterMunshun: One night, i'm making my calls, and i come to
this name on one of my sheets
MisterMunshun: "Mrs. Pucci"
MisterMunshun: I'm making the calls before it, but i'm just
going through the motions, because in my head, over and over,
i'm thinking
MisterMunshun: DON'T SAY PUSSY DON'T SAY PUSSY DON'T SAY PUSSY
IT'S POO-CHI POO-CHI NOT PUSSY DON'T SAY PUSSY
MisterMunshun: So, I dial her up
MisterMunshun: She answers
MisterMunshun: "Hello, Mrs. Pussy?"
MisterMunshun: everyone in the office immediately bursts into
laughter, and i just fucking deflate.
MisterMunshun: I can't fucking apologize because everyone is
laughing, which is making ME laugh.
MisterMunshun.: And it wouldn't have mattered anyway, she'd
already fucking hung up.
Jake: and you were fired
