The Jumper

I was employed at the Wooster, OH Wal Mart as a Fitting Room Associate. Well, one of my main responsibilities was to answer the phone, and usually direct the caller to the appropriate department. One Saturday afternoon, I received several unusual calls in a row. The first one was a woman calling to alert someone about the man on the roof. Immediately I assumed it was an employee with a legitimate reason to be there. This was an incorrect assumption. My very next call was from the man on the roof. He told me he was stuck and that someone needed to come help him get down. I asked him why he was on the roof and his response was “Because I can be!” Over the next 10 minutes I got 4 more calls reporting the man on the roof.
