Overheard...

I really need to stop eavesdropping on my coworker's calls when I'm bored, because then I hear things like~

 "As far as I know sir, we do not employ elephants as drivers. I'm sure there are cars in India."

Oy. More coffee is needed...

Haha, I just got a mental picture of an elephant driving a car.

I can't be the only one who was momentarily imagining an elephant as a driver for a piece of hardware.

yeah this was my call...

As a background, this is for DHL tech support so the drivers being refered to is the delivery truck drivers. The customer was concerned that his package to India was just going to get strapped onto the back of an elephant and not get to it's destination until sometime in January.

Just as well they don't have elephants as delivery drivers. One mouse on the expressway, and just think of the pandemonium.

(Hey, everything I know about elephants I learned from Bugs Bunny cartoons. Are you suggesting Warner Bros. would lie about pachyderms having a pathological fear of small rodents?)
