additional supplies for my briefcase

Duct tape: unlimited applications! Used to quiet the realtor who wants to BS throughout the entire signing. Used to quiet the SA who wants to fire on the mouthy realtor. Used to quiet the entire room in order to be heard without raising one's voice.

Chains: Used to keep the realtor in his/her designated seat at the table.

Battery and electrodes: Used on the realtor who continues to spout BS and untruths about the docs, the LO, the TC, his sister or the President.

Memory erasers: Used to "assist" the BO/Seller to forget all the BS the realtor has told them.

One large bottle of JD: Used in medical emergencies~

LOL Sue!

Sounds like you just went throught the PC from hell!
I cannot believe the way these realtors behave during these signings!
Greedily asking for their checks, too, acting like they never heard of a dry closing, lol.
We were just addressing this last night with our network.
What an embarrassment they are to their field!
I like your solutions, though.
I'll be stocking up....

Now Now...

Let's not get to stereotyping Realtors. Most of the ones I know are very professional and would not behave in such a way. Also true of SS's and TC's and other Signing agents.
Now that being said, like all professions, there are exceptions. I used to be a Realtor and met many of them.
Like the one who, when I asked about the location of a septic sysytem said "That system is guaranteed by God". I asked for it in writing .
Same Realtor. An argument broke out at the closing table between buyer and seller. The realtor finally got out of his chair and laid down on the floor. That stopped the arguing. He asked them "Well? Are we closing today or not?" They laughed and went on with the closing.
It got so I actually looked forward to working with this guy because I couldn't decide if he was nuts or not. No one can. He's still a very successful Realtor. Bring his name up and folks chuckle.

"Septic System Guaranteed by God"

LOL Thank you Sue and Zana for tickling me.
I don't mean to sterotype, but I must've seen the worst of the worst in action.
I wish mine were as interesting as yours.

Don't forget Erma Bombeck said..."The Grass is Always

Greener Over The Septic Tank".....what does this have to do with the subject?.....NOTHING...but it reminded me of Ms. Erma..."Smiles...everyone...smiles....welcome to Fantasy Island...I'm Mr Roarke...your host!"
