The Infomercials Must Love You
Deli | Bay Area, CA, USA
(A customer comes up to the register with her sandwich purchase, which had sun-dried tomatoes on it.)
Customer: “Do you make the sun-dried tomatoes here?”
Me, jokingly: “Yes, we have several lawn chairs in back. We cut the tomatoes into little strips and leave them out there for a week or two. ”
Customer: “Really?!”
Me: “No, I was just kidding. We get them from a distributor. ”
Customer: “Well, that’s not nice of you at all! When I was growing up I was always taught to believe things I was told by salespeople!”
