Humorous Stories
Unexpected Gift
Some interesting things have happened over the years at Hendel’s. One day, two ladies came into our showroom and they asked if Hendel’s could make a small donation to a charitable organization that helps abandoned children. The gift we offered was a small box with a roll of adding machine tape inside. The adding machine tape had $50 worth of coins and dollar bills taped to the roll. Also, at the end of the tape there were three chips from Harrah’s Casino. On top of the box there was a tab marked “pull.” As the tab was pulled a long ribbon of money could be drawn from the box. Even though Linda and I attended their social event we could not stay for the drawings to see who won our small donation.
The next day, a Mrs.Vera Janson called and said, “Oh thank you! That was such a nice and unusual gift. We enjoyed opening it.” About five months later she called back and explained that after she won the prize her husband passed away and she had been unable to drive. Finally she got a neighbor to take her to Harrah’s Casino. She said, “I inserted the first coin in one of those big slot machines and won a $25,000 jackpot.”
A New Boat, by Ted Janssen
We were on a company outing at Roosevelt Lake. It was my first or second summer working at Hendel’s. Joe had a new motor home and a boat. We noticed that a summer storm was brewing so we took shelter in the motor home. It was a powerful thunderstorm.
Suddenly Joe became concerned that the boat was not properly moored and that it might break loose in the storm. He wanted everyone to go out and help secure the boat. Joe counted, “One, two, three,” and ran out the door. We laughed and just closed the door behind him. The wind was blowing and the rain was pouring down. We finally went out and helped Joe secure the boat.
