AN ORDER

A CUSTOMER SENT AN ORDER

TO A DISTRIBUTOR FOR

A LARGE AMOUNT OF GOODS

TOTALING A GREAT DEAL OF MONEY.

THE DISTRIBUTOR NOTICED

THAT THE PREVIOUS BILL

HADN’T BEEN PAID,

SO HE ASKED HIS COLLECTIONS MANAGER

TO LEAVE A VOICE-MAIL

FOR THEM SAYING,

“WE CAN’T SHIP YOUR NEW ORDER

UNTIL YOU PAY FOR THE LAST ONE.”

THE NEXT DAY

THE COLLECTIONS MANAGER

RECEIVED A COLLECT PHONE CALL,

“PLEASE CANCEL THE ORDER.

WE CAN’T WAIT THAT LONG.”
