A man was in the airport VIP lounge en route to Seattle.
While in there, he noticed Bill Gates sitting comfortably in the corner, enjoying a drink. He was meeting a very important client who was also flying to Seattle, but she was running a little bit late.
Well, being a straightforward kind of guy, he approached the Microsoft chairman, introduced himself, and said, "Mr. Gates, I wonder if you would do me a favor."
"Yes?"
"I'm sitting right over there," pointing to his seat at the bar, "And
I'm waiting on a very important client. Would you be so kind when
she arrives as to come walk by and just say, 'Hi, Bob'?"
"Sure."
He shook his hand and thanked him and went back to his seat.
About ten minutes later, his client showed up. They ordered a drink
and started to talk business. A couple of minutes later, he felt a tap
on his shoulder. It was Bill Gates.
"Hi Bob," he said.
The man replied, "F*&^% off, Gates, I'm in a meeting."
