If your friend is arrested for DUI, will he ring his wife or ring you?

This happened like four years ago, but I recalled this today: a friend was done for for Driving-Under-Influence (DUI).

I came to know although I was at home, presumably watching footy on the telly, as it was a Saturday night, and I am a fan of the English Premier League.

I received a call, it was about 12.15am, and this chap, who had sobered somewhat, (guess everyone sobers after being arrested) rang from his mobile to say that he was in a police station in the city and the prospect of spending the night in the lock-up was too harrowing.

He didn't ring his wife. Why? Suppose his beloved wife will just give him an earful, so he rang me, 'the' networking expert to get him out. 'Get your lawyer friend here quick, man!' he pleaded.

So, when your friend gets done, who does he ring? His spouse or you?

It is an indication of your ability to connect people from your network, for various products and services.

Keep at it, volunteer information about your colleagues from your network and eventually you'll be the person your friends ring up when they get arrested!
