So Stupid I Almost Painted
hardware store | Queens, NY, USA
Customer: “I need some paint.”
Me: “No problem, let me show you our selection.”
(After taking her time picking out colors from all the swatches we have…)
Customer: “I want these two colors mixed. I‚Äôm going to be painting stripes.”
Me: “Sure, no problem. Let me mix it up for you. Would you like a gallon of each, or a different size? Also, would you like some painters tape and a couple of brushes?”
Customer: “I only need one brush and I don’t need any painters tape, because you are going to mix the two colors.”
Me: “You want me to mix the two colors?”
Customer: “Yes, so I can just buy one gallon and paint stripes.”
