Different Degrees Of Understanding

(A customer asked me an irrelevant question I didn’t know the answer to…)
Me: “I’m really not sure. I’m sorry.”
Customer: “Well, I guess that’s why you’re a waitress.”
Me: *in disbelief* “I actually have a Bachelor’s degree in education.”
Customer: “So you think having a degree automatically makes you smart?”
Me: “Well, you seem to think that being a waitress automatically makes you trashy.”
(She sat there speechless for a few seconds, and then demanded to speak to my manager about my rudeness. Other customers vouched for me and I did not get in trouble.)
