Ay Dios Mío…
A customer starts speaking to me in — as far as I can tell — an English accent. Their English is perfect.
Customer: “Excuse me. Would you fetch an employee who can speak Spanish, please? I can’t speak any English.”
Me: “You can’t speak English?”
Customer: “Not a word.”
Me: “But you can speak Spanish?”
Customer: “That’s right.”
Me: “I can certainly find a Spanish-speaking coworker for you, sir, but I feel I need to point out that we’re both speaking English at the moment, and I must say, you’re doing wonderfully.”
Customer: “Oh, I’m speaking English! I must have sobered up. Wait, why do I sound British?” *Wanders off*
Whatever he’s on is one heckuva drug.
