Ellen is intense. She either snaps or barks.

"Does the voice talent have the copy?" she asks

"Philip" says Marc the sound

"Does he have the copy?"

"Yes" replies PB

"Any conflicts?" she snaps. I think for a moment.

"Well. I always felt that my brother was my Mother's favourite and have secretly hated him for that"

APPLAUSE - LAUGHTER - ISDN GOES DEAD - PHONE

"Can we reconnect in about 30 minutes?" asks the voice at the end of the phone "client/agent (Cough) discussion!"

30 minutes later sesson resumes. Ellen is very subdued. Everyone else happy with the result and lots of laughs during the session.

"I won't tie up the ISDN so Ellen would you call me as I have a question"

"K"

I didn't have a question but Ellen talked to me for exactly 2 hours 10 minutes. Why? No one else had ever listened to her. We talk for a living so in your spare time, try listening.

Was that appointment covered under the Behavioral Health category of her insurance plan?

You're mighty quick with the clever come-backs
and thoughtful to a fault.

Don't believe it, it just took poor Ellen 2 hours 10 minutes to understand what Philip was saying.

Nicely done. Very gracious.
