One day, I told José, “Today, a client, a woman, kept saying that you were so nice with her over the phone.”
José said, “Really ? That is very kind of her.”
I said, “She kept repeating to me, two or three times, “Wow, il est très gentil, très gentil…””
I smiled, “One day, if you don’t answer the phone anymore, people will…”
What I wanted to say, was “People will miss you or people will miss your voice” something like that.
But José interupted me.
He said, “Forget me.”
I was taken aback by surprise.
He looked at me, nodding, “Yes, people will simply forget me. Do you think they will remember me ? No. People have many other things to think about. Like children, work, house, wife, husband, dog, cat, income tax…”
“Hahahaha” I laughed.
I asked, “And what about me ? “
He blinked at me, “Yes, the very same thing. When you will not be there anymore, people will simply forget you. That is human nature.”
Hmmmmm, well, I should say that what I like about José, is just his delightfully practical mind.
