The following list is a spoof regarding the Coaching field. It's important for both Coach and Client to maintain a sense of humor while engaging in personal growth and development. This list is offered to assist in this process, and bring a laugh and a smile to all concerned - Enjoy!
1. My Coach put me "on hold" for 27 minutes of a 30 minute call!
2. After hearing my story, the coach gave me the toll-free number of "Dial-A-Prayer"!
3. I told my Coach that I had an affair, and the Coach asked, "Who was the caterer?" and "How many people attended?"
4. My Coach's toll-free number turned out to be a "Psychic Hotline"!
5. I found out my Coach's headset is hooked up to a stereo instead of the telephone whenever I call!
6. I discovered that my Coach was only with me "on tape" when I was asked the same question 63 times in a row!
7. All month long I kept getting a busy signal whenever I called my Coach, so I finally wrote a letter asking "Why?" He wrote back saying, "Because you've been taken out of the game!"
8. I told my Coach I needed "a little T.L.C. (by which I meant "Tender Loving Care"). Two days later a Stereo CD arrived in the mail called, "Crazy, Sexy, Cool" by a singing group named TLC!
9. I told my Coach I wanted a lot more out of life, so she raised her rates!
10. My Coach's email address is: [hockeypuck@rickles.com]!
