	Friday Fax A Weekly Summary of Polywater^® News of Incredible Importance

Issue #868

Huzzah! Another fantastic accolade for a Polywater salesperson came to Electrical Division VP Tom Fredericks' attention recently.

Like sons, like father. These are Jake Jonnes' superhero kids. Jake sort of takes after them, although he's too shy to let us take his picture in tights and cape. Nevertheless, when he's not flying around dominating woodpeckers, he's running the Pull-Planner Software like a boss. After he did a quick-change in a phone booth and worked a sales miracle, here's what one customer wrote to say about him:

"Tom, My name is Mike Cecil. I work as the Construction Services Manager over here at Barth Electric. First I want to say thanks for making such a great product. I have used your cable lubricants for many years in the field as a job foreman before taking on this role in the company. My position now is to help all jobs with efficiency and productivity, including complex wire pulls. I will cut to the chase here and say that Jake Jonnes has helped me on a number of occasions and is always very courteous and professional when I call him. Recently he helped me plug numbers into the Pull-Planner Software that really made a difference on how we planned and will pull our wire. I wanted to take a little time to give thanks to Jake for all his help. Keep up the good work! Thanks, gratefully." --Mike Cecil, Construction Services, Barth Electric Co., Inc.

Jake's signature sales-superhero saying is: "With a great PowerPoint comes great response." Keep up the good work making cable installation engineering safe for humanity.

The Friday Fax Editor's Joke of the Week

The Joke

Two Jokes. 1) A couple is shopping at Wal-Mart. The husband picks up a case of beer and puts it in their cart. "What do you think you're doing?" asks the wife. "It's on sale, only ten dollars for twenty-four cans," he replies. "Put them back. It's a waste of money," demands the wife. So he puts it back and they continue shopping. A few aisles later the woman picks up a $20 jar of face cream and puts it in the cart. "What do you think you're doing?" asks the husband. "It's my face cream. It makes me look beautiful," she says. Her husband says, "So does a case of beer ... and it's half the price." 2) After two office visits and exhaustive lab tests, my new doctor said I was doing fairly well for a 70-year-old. A bit concerned about the comment, I couldn't help asking her, "Do you think I'll live to be eighty?" The doctor said, "Do you smoke tobacco, or drink alcohol?" I said, "No, I'm not doing drugs, either!" So she asked, "Do you eat steaks and barbecued ribs?" I said, "No, my old doctor said that all red meat is unhealthy!" Then she asked, "Do you spend a lot of time in the sun, like playing golf, boating, sailing, hiking, or bicycling?" I said, "Nope." She asked, "Do you gamble, drive fast cars, or have a lot of sex?" I said no. So she looked at me and said, "Then what the heck do you even want to live for?"
