A sampling of my day
Customer: is that your black car there ?
Me: no it is not
Customer: we drove by and saw a place to park up front turned around in the grocery store parking lot and when we came back that black car was parked there ... they took our spot I think that is rude my husband does not walk so good.
Me: blank stare
***********
Customer: it has been so long since I have been here ...EVERYTHING has changed
Me: no things are the same I have not changed anything recently
Customer : oh no no no EVERYTHING has changed it is under new ownership
Me: uhmmm I am the owner and I am not new
Customer: no it is new owners
Me: blank stare
****************
Customer: how much is the Medium Gouda
Me: we have it on a good special right now ... 2.29 100 grams
Customer : If I buy a half wheel I get 10 % off still ?
Me: Normally yes but not when it is on special .... you save $10.00 a kilo with this special it is a great price
Customer : but I always get 10% off if I buy half a wheel
Me: if cheese is at the regular price yes you do but not when it is on special
Customer : but I want my 10%
Me: *picks up half a wheel of cheese* this piece is regularly $79.00 with 10% off you would pay $71.00 with the special price it will be $55.00 ... if you got 10% off you would be paying more.
Customer: I always get 10% off when I buy half a wheel ...did you stop that ??
Me: *gritting my teeth* no I still do 10% off regular priced cheese if you buy half a wheel I can do that for you but then you dont get the special price and will pay more
Customer: I want my 10%
yes ... yes I did sell it to her for the $71.00 .. and I damn well enjoyed every minute of ringing it in and I thank her for the bottle of wine I am going to pick up on my way home
