Get Thee To A Nursery

(An older customer comes to the counter with lingerie and skimpy outfits that are clearly too small for her.)

Customer: *defensively* “They aren’t for me!”

Me: “Okay.”

Customer: “What do you see in my hair?”

Me: “Uh, nothing?”

Customer: “A lot of white! You see? White!”

(She grabs several white strands of her hair and shows them to me.)

Me: “Okay?”

Customer: “It’s not okay… not when I don’t have grandkids. My daughter is thirty and hasn’t even started dating! I hope this will help her along!”
