A Storm Of Entitlement, Part 8
Customer: “Why is the bread section so empty?”
Me: “Apologies, sir, the bread has been delayed a few days due to the hurricane down south. That’s where the trucks come from.”
Customer: “Well, that’s no excuse.”
Me: “That’s your opinion, sir, but that is the reason.”
Customer: “Can’t they just drive around?”
Me: “Around… the hurricane?”
Customer: “Yeah! I saw it on the news; it’s just a round thing. It’s not a line separating the north from the south. They can drive around it.”
Me: “That’s not how it works, sir.”
Customer: “Well, they need to think of something because your customers are going to go without sandwiches, and that would be a disaster!”
I scan his face for the faintest sign of irony or trolling, but there is none. This guy genuinely believes what he is saying.
Me: “That’s… is also your opinion, sir. You can try again in a couple of days.”
Customer: *Muttering as he ‘storms’ down the aisle.* “Stupid hurricanes blowing away all the bread!”
