A Prime Example Of Not Listening

I’m working as a meat cutter at the grocery store.

Customer: “I need a prime rib.”

I grab a ribeye roast and hold it up, about to ask how much, but then:

Customer: “No, no. I said prime rib.”

Me: “Yes, this is it. Ribeye roast and prime rib are the same cut.”

Customer: “No, they aren’t!”

Me: “They really are the same thing.”

Customer: “You don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Me: “It’s the same piece of meat. The difference between a ribeye and a prime rib is in how the butcher cuts and prepares the two.”

Customer: “Either get me what I ask for or get me someone who knows what they’re talking about.”

I pause, nod, and set the roast back down.

Me: “Okay. Then I guess we’re out of them.”

Customer: “F****** typical! This is the third place I’ve tried!” *Storms out.*
