Abstract

Thank you for your call, but we do not work with agents. I see! Could I ask why? >Company policy. >Could I ask you for a big favour? Go ahead! Would you mind telling me this face to face? I do not understand. I would like to come from Thessaloniki, Greece, all the way to LaCoruna, Spain to meet you for three minutes and listen from you that you do not work with agents. !!! I am willing to take three flights Thessaloniki-Athens, Athens-Madrid and Madrid-LaCoruna. This will take me around 12 hours. And 12 hours back. I will spend 24 hours to meet you. Could you please give me three minutes to tell me that you do not work with agents? I have been in this business for so many years and I know most of the tricks used by sales people. I will give you the 3 minutes you request, but you should know from now that the only thing you will hear from me is that we do not work with agents. I have a three-minute gap in two weeks at 10 am. Thank you very much Mr Marcos. See you in two weeks.
