Why should you use candles?
The next day, Modina, Mrs. Modon, receives a telephone call from DESA because the electricity bill has not been paid.
"Am I speaking to Mrs Modon?"- the guy from the other side of phone says.
"Yes...... speaking" - replies Modina.
"You're a month overdue, you know!" - says the DESA guy
"How do YOU know?" stammers the young woman.
"Well, ma'am, it's in our files!" says the DESA guy.
Modina : "What are you saying? It's in your files ... HOW ?????"
DESA guy : "Yes ....... We have a system of finding out who's overdue"
Modina : "GOD !!!!!!......... This is too much.........."
DESA guy : "Madam, I am sorry.... I am following orders.... I have to inform you
are overdue".
Modina : "I know that ... let me talk to my husband about this tonight...he will speak to your company tomorrow ".
That night, she tells her husband, Mr. Modon about the call, and he, mad as a bull, rushes to DESA office the next day morning.
"What's going on? You have it on file that my wife is a month overdue? What business is that of yours?" the husband shouts.
"Just calm down," says the lady at the reception at DESA,
"it's nothing serious. All you have to do is pay us." - she exclaims.
Modon : "PAY you? And if I refuse?"
Lady at reception : "Well, in that case, sir, we'd have no option but to cut yours off."
"And what would my wife do then?" the husband asks.
Lady at reception : "I don't know. I guess she'd have to use a candle."
Moral of the story : If your wife uses a candle, there'll be no chance of being overdue.
