A fantastic illustration of Communication Skill Dont Miss Read completely

One evening after attending the theatre, two gentlemen
were walking
down the avenue when they observed a rather well
dressed and attractive
lady walking just ahead of them. One of the men
turned to the other and
remarked, "I'd give $50.00 to spend the night with
this woman." To their surprise the young lady
overheard the remark and turning around she
said, "I'll take you up on that." She had a pleasant
voice and a neat appearance, so, after bidding his
companion good night, the man accompanied the lady to
her apartment, where they immediately went to
her apartment where they immediately went to bed.
The following morning the man presented her with
$25.00. As he prepared to leave she demanded the rest
of the money stating "If you don't give me the money
I'll sue you for it."
He laughed saying "I'd like to see you get it on
these grounds."
The next day he was surprised when he received a
summons ordering his presence in court as defendant in
a law suit. He hurried to his lawyer and explained the
details of the case. His lawyer said: "She
can't possibly get a judgement against you on such
grounds, but it will be interesting to see how her
case will be presented."
In court after the usual preliminaries, the lady's
lawyer addressed the court as follows: "Your Honour,
my client, this lady here, is the owner of a piece of
property, a garden spot surrounded by a profuse growth
of shrubbery, property she agreed to rent to the
defendant for a specific length of time for the sum of
$50.00. The defendant took possession of
the property, used it extensively for the purpose for
which it was rented, but upon evacuating the premises
he paid only $25.00 which is only half the amount
agreed upon. The rent was not excessive, since it
is restricted property, and we ask judgement to be
granted against the defendant to assure payment of the
balance."
The defendant's lawyer was impressed and amused at
the way the opponent had presented the case. His
defense, therefore, was somewhat altered from the way
he originally planned to present it.
"Your Honour, my client agrees that the young lady has
a fine piece of property, that he did rent such
property for a time and a degree of pleasure was
derived from the transaction. However, my client found
a well on the property, around which he placed his
stones, sunk a shaft and erected a pump, all
labour being performed personally by him. We claim
these improvements to the property adequately
compensated for rental of said property. We
therefore, ask judgement be not granted."
The young lady's lawyer come back was this: "Your
Honour: My client agrees that the defendant did find a
well on her property and that he did make
improvements such as my opponent has described.
However, had the defendant not known the well existed,
he would never have rented the
property, also, upon evacuating the premises, the
defendant removed the stones, pulled out the shaft and
took the pump with him. In doing so, he not only
dragged the equipment through the shrubbery, but left
the hole much larger than it was prior to his
occupancy, making it easily accessible to little
children. We therefore, ask that judgement be
granted."
She got judgement.
