Humor: This Client Gave New Meaning to the Phrase “Blood Diamonds”

The client was handing one of my associates a huge pair of diamond earrings to be cleaned. When she held out her hand to receive them, my employee commented on the brown stuff on the earrings. Heavily drugged, Madame answered, “Oh I think that’s blood.” My associate’s hand disappeared so quickly that those giant rocks bounced off the counter and flew into the store. After a few seconds, not missing a beat, the customer replied, “Oh, don’t worry about that, it’s dried.” Holy biohazard, Batgirl! — Denise O., La Grange, IL
