From The Mouth Of Babes, Part 7

(I work at a major retail store in the deli. Two children aged 8 and 5 come up to order food. The 5-year-old is close to touching the lower part of the hot case.)

Me: “Careful sweetie, this is kept very hot and you could burn yourself.” *to the 8-year-old* “You’d be surprised how many people burn themselves on this thing.”

8-Year-Old: “Well, they all obviously need glasses, because there’s a warning that says ‘Caution: Hot!’ right in front of their faces.”

Me: “You’re more intelligent than most adults who come up here!”
