Nature’s Calling, Please Don’t Answer
(I work on a berry farm and we have U-pick on the farm. While working in U-pick, I come across a woman and her son walking in the small wooded area beside one of the strawberry fields.)
Me: “Hi, ma’am, I couldn’t help but notice you walking through the trees here. Are you looking for someone?”
Customer: “Oh, hi. Um, no… we aren’t looking for anyone.”
(She continues to walk away from me.)
Me: “I’m sorry, ma’am, I’m going to have to ask you to come back to the strawberry field now. This wooded area is actually not on farm property.”
Customer: “Oh, that’s okay. We’ll be quick. My son just needs to poop.”
Me: “Oh! Actually, we ask that you don’t do that here. We have restrooms back at the main building.”
(I point to the building, which is about twenty yards away.)
Customer: *sighs* “Well, alright, but that’s a pretty long way to walk…”
