Didn’t Get Her Fill(et)
(I’m working in the seafood department of a grocery store. We sell pretty common fish, most sold as fillets. An older woman comes in one afternoon.)
Customer: “I want a fillets.”
Me: “Okay, which type of fillets?”
Customer: *slowly growing agitated* “A fillets.”
Me: “Ma’am, a fillet is a cut of fish. Not a type. I need to know what type you would like.”
Customer: “A FILLET! JUST A FILLET!”
Me: “Do you want a fillet of salmon, fillet of flounder? Cod? I need to know what type of fish.”
(The customer then threw her hands up in the air and stormed off, huffing.)
