H2-D’oh!, Part 10
I work in the kitchen appliance section, and a customer is browsing our refrigerators. I see her take a display cup from one of our display kitchens, walk over to a fridge with a cold water and ice dispenser, and try to fill her cup. Obviously, nothing comes out.
Customer: “Why are you trying to sell broken fridges?”
Me: “It’s not broken, but these are display items. They’re not connected to the water or power.”
Customer: “Why would it need to be connected to water?”
Me: “You just tried to use the water dispenser, right?”
Customer: “Yeah.”
Me: “Where do you think that water would come from?”
Customer: “Doesn’t the fridge just… make it?”
Me: “No, it needs to be connected to the water supply.”
Customer: “I don’t think that’s true.”
Me: “How does the fridge ‘make’ the water, then?”
Customer: “I don’t know! I’m not a liquidologist! Are you?!”
Me: “I don’t think anyone is.”
