My strangest conversation with El Al....
« on: August 15, 2017, 06:04:59 PM »
Just had the strangest conversation with El Al ever (And I've spoken to them dozens of times). One of the first things he asks me is if I'm chareidi... And then he goes into a whole discussion about why exactly he should be frum? He finishes the 45 minute conversation that we'll continue tomorrow night (cuz he needs to get back to me on what I had actually called about - I nearly forgot what that was....)
And I thought that all they're calls are recorded... (Maybe not after midnight)
He told me he was shomer shabbos for about 10 years, but he found it boring so he dropped it.
Any good tips for tomorrow night....?

I told him to try experiencing a few shabbosim in Yerushalayim, instead of Tel Aviv...

Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.
