The Importance of ListeningWanda's dishwasher quit working so she called a repairman. Since
> she had to go to work the next day, she told the repairman, 'I'll leave
>> the key under the mat. Fix the dishwasher, leave the bill on the
>> counter, and I'll mail you a check .'
>>
>> 'Oh, by the way don't worry about my dog Spike. He won't bother you.
>> But, whatever you do, do NOT, under ANY circumstances, talk to my
>> parrot!' 'I REPEAT; DO NOT TALK TO MY PARROT!!!'
>>
>> When the repairman arrived at Wanda's apartment the following day,
> he discovered the biggest, meanest looking dog he has ever seen. But,
>> just as she had said, the dog just lay there on the carpet watching
>> the repairman go about his work.
>>
>>
>>
>> The parrot, however, drove him nuts the whole time with his
> incessant yelling, cursing and name calling. Finally the repairman couldn't
>> contain himself any longer and yelled,
>>
>> 'Shut up, you stupid, ugly bird!'
>>
>> To which the parrot replied, 'Get him, Spike!'
>>
>>
>> See - Men just don't listen!
