Goose attack!
Last week I was attacked by a Canadian goose.
I was delivering flowers to a house in Lloyd Harbor. I saw a family of geese sunbathing in the front lawn.
I passed them, careful not to step on their poop all over the place, heading to the front porch.
All the sudden, a big goose started charging at me! I run for life. This is a big bird with strong beak, and I wasn’t ready to serve my toes or fingers to him.
I thought of calling 9-11. However, the last thing I wanted was to end up in a local news as a guy who called the cop because of an attack goose. That’s not going to help my manhood self-esteem. Besides, that would give my wife a perfect punchline to humiliate me in front of our mutual friends.
So I decided not to call. I just run to the side door and rang the bell. No one came to the door, so I left the flowers there. It’s quite possible that people in that house was too afraid to come out.
If you have any doubt on how vicious a Canadian goose can be, take a look at the video below.
Now that is real customer service. Making sure the flowers are delivered without regard to life or limb. Geese can be very vicious but you got the flowers delivered despite the danger. Way To Go!
