big daddy

at the fitness center i work at, people are always forgetting their stuff. the last shift i worked, "big daddy" forgot his cell phone there. i knew it was big daddy's phone because that's what it said on the screen. well big daddy's phone sure was blowing up so i finally answered it, fully expecting it to be a black woman on the other end. it was big daddy's wife and she was wondering who i was and why i was answering big daddy's phone. i quickly explained that i was just trying to get her husband's phone back to him and would hold it at the front desk until close. well, big daddy finally came back by to pick his phone up. please know that instead of the 300 pound line backer black man i was anticipating, it was this 5'5" 70 year old greek guy weighing in at not more than a buck twenty. i heart greek people. i heart little old guys who still wanna be called big daddy.
