Dog On Demand
Customer: “Hi, I need some help.”
Me: “Of course, sir. How can I help you today?”
Customer: “I want to buy a dog.”
Me: “We don’t sell dogs or cats here. Our company has a policy against it because of the number of unwanted dogs in animal shelters.”
Customer: “What the h*** are you talking about? Of course you sell dogs. They’re right there!”
Me: “Actually, that’s our grooming salon, where customers can bring their pets for a haircut or bath. Would you like me to show you the adoption computer?”
Customer: “It’s nice that you’re making the dogs pretty for me. Now, when can I see them?”
Me: “Those dogs belong to other people, sir. It’s a grooming salon.”
Customer: *sighs* “Fine, I get it. They’re all sold.”
(The customer sees a woman walking by with a Labrador on a leash.)
Customer: “I’ll take that one, then. I can get a discount since it’s a floor model, right?”
