Unfiltered Story #161906

This was a few days ago, an elderly women comes up to me.

Customer: “Excuse me, but I need a cord for my TV.”
Me: “Do you know what cord you’re looking for?”
Customer: “No.”
Me: “Well do you need a power cord or something to connect other devices, like a dvd player, to the TV?”
Customer: “Oh probably a power cord. I haven’t taken the TV out of the box and set it up yet.”
Me: “Well TVs generally come with the power cord in the box when they’re new. What you’re probably looking for is a cord to connect things to your TV, but you might not even need one. It really depends on what you need once you set up what you already have.”
Customer: “Oh. Okay.” *walks out of store*
