Trending In The Wrong Direction
(I work at a fairly indie bar. We have a lot of real ales on tap, which we serve in special old-fashioned mugs.)
Me: “Here you go, sir. One [Ale].”
Customer: “This mug has a short straw on the bottom.”
Me: “That’s okay, I can take it off.” *moving to pull it away*
Customer: “Nah, you can leave it on. I want to start a new fashion trend!”
Me: *laughing* “Okay, I’ll leave it for you. That comes to [total].”
Customer: *hands over money* “Actually, I better take it off. The missis might get jealous I started a new trend and she didn’t!”
