Woot : One Day, One Deal (SM)

On this beautiful day, Goldilocks arrived at her job with a major player in the world of ursine retail. Each day, Goldilocks would be expected to cold-call a new bear and try to sell them on a specific type of speaker. But each day, the new bears would roar dramatically and then hang up. And it had gone this way for two weeks! Goldilocks began to be very worried. Her boss had said that her numbers were way down, and she didn’t have long to improve before she was going to be canned. And so, on this beautiful day, Goldilocks went to the badger that handled stock and said “Oh, Mister Badger, can’t you please help me?” And Mister Badger didn’t say anything, because badgers can’t talk. But he did snarl in the direction of an Altec Lansing Expressionist PLUS 2.1 Speaker System. So Goldilocks took that as a sign.

Back at her desk, Goldilocks tested out her new acquisition. She was impressed with the crystal-clear sound of the 2” speaker drivers, as well as the 5.25” desktop subwoofer, but would it be enough to win over a bear? Goldilocks heard her boss make that condemning coughing noise from his usual place in her blind spot. She put on her headset. It was now or never!

“Grawwwr?” said a small voice on the other end of the line. Goldilocks knew right away, it was a baby bear that had picked up the phone by mistake. Then, suddenly, there was a click, and another person joined the line. Goldilocks felt her stomach flip, as she realized that she was now in between a mother bear and her cub! The most dangerous place a salesperson could be!

“Grawwwwwr!” said the momma bear. Goldilocks thought fast. “Yes, ma’am, but did you know that the Altec Lansing Expressionist PLUS 2.1 Speaker System has an Aux In jack, for use with CD player, DVD players, and almost every MP3 device? It’s the perfect speaker set when you just want some quiet music at your desk. Does Mr. Bear have a desk, ma’am?”

“Grawwwwr.” said the momma bear. Goldilocks laughed, remembering the techniques she learned from an Og Mandino book. “That’s a good point, ma’am!” Goldilocks replied, “but surely, the Altec Lansing Expressionist PLUS 2.1 Speaker System wouldn’t be too small for your husband or too large for your child. In fact, if you consider what it is able to do, I’d say that the Altec Lansing Expressionist PLUS 2.1 Speaker System is… just right?”

Goldilocks heard the sound of large paws against a purse, and then, the sound of beeps as the momma bear began entering her credit card number. Goldilocks turned towards her boss, just in time to see him giving her a thumbs up. She had done it! She had done it at last!

That night, as Goldilocks left work to visit her parole officer, she made herself a solemn vow. Never again would she break into people’s houses. That had already cost her twenty years of her life. Now, she was an Altec Lansing Expressionist PLUS 2.1 Speaker System saleswoman. Now, she was going legit!
