Howards Pest Control

Today I was calling around to get the best deal on pest control services. I had called about five different companies. I had started to call companies that I have never heard of. I thought that maybe the smaller companies that I have never heard of. Tiny, Tiny little pest control you would have never heard of.

So I called this one called Howard's Pest Control. This little Old lady answers. (so old that picking up the phone probably wore her out) and she says Hello.. I say Hi, I'm calling about your pest control services..

She says: who is this?

I say oh- My name is Jessica
She says: What is this in regards to?
Now I'm a little confused- So I say Um- Pest control services

Then she shocks the hell out of me:

She says Oh, we are out of business-- MY HUSBAND IS DEAD.

I was sooooo shocked--I say, OH I'm soooo sorry!!!
She quickly says OK and hangs up.

How sad. I was very uncomfortable--- So I hang up and Immediately I started busting up laughing. I mean It was kinda funny!!!!
