Customer: “Excuse me, I’m looking for soup.”
Me: “What kind of soup did you have in mind?”
Customer: “You know, soup.”
Me: *attempting to narrow down the options* “Were you interested in hot and ready to eat soup, or are you looking for canned soup?”
Customer: “I want soup.”
Me: *brain cells beginning to weaken and die* “We carry hot soups in the deli, but otherwise, you’ll find our soup selection in… the soup aisle.”
Customer: “Soup?”
Me: *nodding slowly* “Yep. Soup.”
(Customer wandered away.)
