    I don't have a bad sales pitch but he had a pretty funny experience that just happened here with a new processor.

    We had a merchant come into the office to sign docs and had our new processor walk through the process with him. The funds are being used to purchase a new food truck for his distribution business and pay off his current truck. I asked the processor to get me his license and apparently there was confusion.

    One of rep looked out side and she was in the parking lot with the merchant trying to get the license plates off his truck.

    Classic. When I was at MCC, an underwriter asked a merchant for copies of their most recent rent checks, but since the merchant paid in cash they photocopied the money and sent that over. It was a photocopy of both cash and change (quarters, dimes, nickels, pennies).

    I don't remember if it was you or Paul G working the deal for us, but we had a lady doing a merchant interview for a renewal on her way to the hospital to give birth. Had to be 2005 or 2006. Crazy times.

    I remember once having a merchant list their "mobile" on the app as a Honda Accord. Too many good ones over the years, but I'll never forget that one.
