Happy Holidays From blackEnergy
Posted by Sonja Ebron
It’s said you learn the most during challenging times. If so, blackEnergy earned a PhD this year. We owe our survival to the prayers of well-wishers, including our staff, our advisers, our nonprofit partners, our patient suppliers and vendors. Most of all, we are grateful for our customers — the lifeblood of any business — who send us money, good will and good cheer throughout the year.
Just this week, we received a call from a customer who’d purchased several bulbs from us for his solar shower. He wanted to know if we carried a part that would allow them to work on a 12-volt system. (We didn’t but referred him to another vendor.) He thanked us for the assistance and indicated he had two more questions:
Customer: Your answer to the first will determine the second one. You ready?
Agent: Yes, sir, go ahead.
Customer: First question - Are you married?
Agent: Yes, sir, I am.
Customer: Second question - What is the difference between an in-law and an outlaw?
Agent: There’s not a bit of difference, sir. You can’t squeeze a ray of light between them.
Customer: Wrong! You wanna know the difference?
Agent: Yes, sir?
Customer: The outlaw is wanted. You all have a Merry Christmas!
That’s the kind of love that keeps us going. Happy holidays from blackEnergy.
