Fowl Behavior, Part 3
Me: “Hello, sir, can I take your order?”
Customer: “Uh, yeah… can I have two whole roast chickens?”
Me: “I’m sorry, sir, but we are all out at the moment. If you come back in thirty minutes, there will be some chickens available.”
Customer: “But what about those chickens over there?” *points at plastic display chickens*
Me: “I’m sorry, sir, but those are display chickens. They are not real.”
Customer: *raises voice* “I reckon those chickens are real and you’re just trying to keep them for yourself!”
(The customer stabs the chicken with a plastic knife from our tray. A chunk of polystyrene is taken out.)
Customer: “Oh, I guess you were telling the truth. I’ll come back in half an hour.”
