Some people just bring negative energy into your life. These are folks you should avoid whenever possible because no matter what kind of mood you’re in, their negativity will make you feel worse. Sometimes people like this can’t help themselves. It’s just who they are. Other times they might be jealous of your good mood or fortune. In this story, a woman shared news of a wonderful trip to Rome she was taking with her husband with her hairdresser. However, the hairdresser was quick to rain on her parade, but the customer got the last laugh in the end!
A woman who was at her hairdresser’s getting her hair styled for a trip to Rome with her husband mentioned the trip to the hairdresser.
“Rome? Why would anyone want to go there?” asked the hairdresser. “It’s crowded and dirty. You’re crazy to go to Rome. So, how are you getting there?” the hairdresser continued.
“We’re taking Continental. We got a great rate!” replied the client. “Continental?” exclaimed the hairdresser. “That’s a terrible airline. Their planes are old, their flight attendants are ugly, and they’re always late. So, where are you staying in Rome?”
“We’ll be at this exclusive little place over on the Tiber River called Teste.” “Don’t go any further. I know that place. Everybody thinks it’s gonna be something special and exclusive, but it’s really a dump,” said the hairdresser.
“We’re going to go to see the Vatican and maybe get to see the Pope,” the client said with illusion. “That’s rich,” laughed the hairdresser. She continued:
“You and a million other people trying to see him. He’ll look the size of an ant. Boy, good luck on this lousy trip of yours. You’re going to need it.”
A month later, the woman came in for another hairdo. The hairdresser asked her about her trip to Rome. “It was wonderful. Not only were we on time in one of Continental’s brand new planes, but it was overbooked, and they bumped us up to first class,” explained the woman.
“The food and wine were wonderful, and I had a handsome 28-year-old steward who waited on me hand and foot,” she added. Knowing she’d ask about the hotel, she continued on with her story.
“And the hotel was great! They’d just finished a $5 million remodeling job, and now it’s a jewel, one of the finest hotels in the city. They, too, were overbooked, so they apologized and gave us their owner’s suite at no extra charge!” she celebrated.
Clearly still bitter about the whole ordeal, the hairdresser muttered: “Well, that’s all well and good, but I know you didn’t get to see the Pope.” Unfortunately for her, she was about to be disappointed yet again.
“Actually, we were quite lucky, because as we toured the Vatican, a Swiss Guard tapped me on the shoulder and explained that the Pope likes to meet some of the visitors, and if I’d be so kind as to step into his private room and wait, the Pope would personally greet me,” the woman narrated.
She continued: “Sure enough, five minutes later, the Pope walked through the door and shook my hand! I knelt down, and he spoke a few words to me.”
“Oh, really! What’d he say?” The hairdresser said in disbelief. With a smirk, the customer replied:
“He asked me: ‘Who screwed up your hair?’”
