Aisle Try Again
(I’m working in the health, beauty, and cosmetics aisle near the store entrance.)
Woman: “Do you have epsom salts?”
Me: “Yes, we do; they’re in this aisle.”
Woman: “I can’t find them. I’ve looked everywhere.”
Me: “I’ll show you where they are.”
(I take her down the aisle. When we get to the epsom salts, about three quarters of the way to the end, she says this:)
Woman: “Oh! I didn’t think to look this far down the aisle.”
(I guess “everywhere” doesn’t cover as much ground as it used to.)
