Smackers
Lillian is heading to his nieces wedding when he realizes he’s lost his luggage. “Damn it,”he exclaims, “I lost my luggage at the airport.” *sigh* He sighs since he recalls his wife telling him that airlines always do this so he should hold onto it. He is a second away from calling his brother to tell him that he can’t make it ‘cause the airline lost his luggage, when he sees a billboard that says“LOST YOUR LUGGAGE DONT FRET , CALL 111-111-1111”in big, bold letters, so instead of calling his brother he calls the number. “Excuse me, I have lost my luggage would you know what do about it,” he inquires. “Please proceed to Washington at 3rd,” an automated voice replies. When he gets there he spots a balding man sitting at a desk. “Hello sir,” he says,”how can I help you.” To be frank he sounds very bored and blunt as if this is a dull and mundane task.
“I was wondering if you would know where my luggage-,” he is cut of by the man. “Yes, yes, I know, of course we have you luggage,” he replies. “So where…,” Lillian trails of. “We just smuggled it out of the airport, it was pretty easy, all they had to do was poison a few security guards,” bald guy says in the same dull tone. Lillian’s jaw drops. “Umm so can I have it back?” He questions when he returns to his senses. “Yup just 1000 smackers, since it was such an easy job,” the bald guy replies. “1000 DOLLARS!” Exclaims Lillian before he can stop himself. “Pay up or leave it,” bald guy responds. “We take Zelle and cash,” he continues.
Carrying his luggage out of the building he mumbles to himself,”1000 smackers for a small job. How much would it be for a big job.” He shakes his head. He catches a taxi and gives the taxi driver the address of the wedding. He almost screams when he sees who the driver is. It’s the bald man from the luggage place. “You headed to a fancy wedding?” He asks. “Yes,”Lillian replies. “Well that makes your 1000 smackers worth it,” taxi driver says. “It sure does,” Lillian mumbles,
