Samba, the old man from the 5th floor. This is the guy who has several kids back in his village and who wanted to bring his sick kid to France. He stopped by and asked for help with transferring all his data from his old Iphone 4S to an Iphone 5 (gift from a friend).

1. He gave me a bottle of whisky (10 Euros)
2. I did the transfer in less than 2 min however I wasted 2 hours chasing his old friend login and password in order to deactivate the Iphone security.
3. He told me that he paid 19.99 Euros / m for his new Sim card and phone plan. I told him that I have the same deal for 3 Euros / m.
4. He asked how he could get such a deal, I told him that he needs to read the internet and wait for the right deal to come up.

He had the same kind of look when I told him what he could/should do to help his sick kid: meaning a shoulder shrug, the eyes focusing somewhere else, a gentle smile that has no real meaning.
