Accenting The Listening Problem
(I’m working in the drive-thru and taking orders. Note: I have no accent and I’m frequently complimented on how clearly I speak in the drive-thru.)
Me: “Hi would you like to try our new sandwich?”
Customer: “ENGLISH!”
Me: “Excuse me?”
Customer: “Oh, you do speak English.”
Me: “Yes, sir, I’ve been speaking English this entire time.”
Customer: “I thought you were speaking another language.”
Question of the Week
