It's All About Trust
Published Jan 01, 1900
A tourist climbed out of his car in downtown Washington DC. He said to a man who was standing near the curb, "Listen, I'm only going to be gone a couple of minutes. Would you watch my car while I go in the store?" "What?" the man huffed. "Do you realize I am a member of the United States Senate?" "No, I didn't realize that," the tourist said. "But I'm in a hurry so I guess I'll have to trust you anyway."
