A young girl who was writing a paper for school came to her father and
asked, "Dad, what is the difference between anger and exasperation?"
The father replied, "It is mostly a matter of degree. Let me show you
what I mean."
With that the father went to the telephone and dialled a number at
random.
To the man who answered the phone, he said, "Hello, is Melvin there?"
The man answered, "There is no one living here named Melvin. Why
don't
you learn to look up numbers before you dial them?"
"See," said the father to his daughter. "That man was not a bit happy
with our call. He was probably very busy with something and we
annoyed
him. Now watch...."
The father dialled the number again. "Hello, is Melvin there?" asked
the
father.
"Now look here!" came the heated reply. "You just called this number
and
I told you that there is no Melvin here! You've got a lot of nerve
calling again!" The receiver slammed down hard.
The father turned to his daughter and said, "You see, that was
anger. Now
I'll show you what exasperation means."
He dialled the same number and when a violent voice roared 'Hello!' in
answer, the father calmly said, "Hello, this is Melvin. Have there
been
any calls for me?"
