Toni grew up in Beirut, then moved away to attend college and law in
Oxford University. He decided to come back to Beirut, because he could
not be a big man in Oxford. He really wanted to impress everyone. So he
returned and opened his new law office!
The first day, he saw a man coming up the sidewalk. He decided to make a
big impression on this new client when he arrived. As the man came to
the door Mr. Toni picked up the phone! He motioned the man in, all while
talking
"No! Absolutely no? You tell those clowns in New York that I won't
settle this case for less than one million! Yes? The Appeals Court has
agreed to hear that case next week! I'll be handling the primary
argument and the other members of my team will provide support Okay?
Tell the State Prosecutor that I'll meet with him next week to discuss
The details."
This sort of thing went on for almost five minutes All the while the
man sat patiently as Toni rattled instructions. Finally, Toni put down
the phone and turned to the man. "I'm sorry for the delay, but as you
can see, I'm very busy. What can I do for you?" The man replied,
"I'm from OGERO, I've come to connect your phone line"
