H2-Slow, Part 21
A customer flags me down and takes me to a display of twenty-four-packs of water. Right now, both the store brand spring water and purified water are on sale for the same price, so there are two displays, one of spring and one of purified, right next to each other.
Customer: “I’m confused about this.”
Me: “Yes?”
Customer: “What’s the difference between the two waters?”
Me: “The green packaging is spring water and the blue packaging is purified water.”
Customer: “What the difference?”
Me: “Huh?”
Customer: “What’s the difference between spring and purified?”
Me: “One comes from a natural spring, and one has been purified.”
Customer: “Purified?”
Me: “Yes… they ran it through a filter.”
Customer: “Where did they get the water from?”
Me: “A reservoir? A river? Maybe a lake? I’m not really sure, but they ran it through a filter to purify it and take out any contaminants.”
The customer looks at me like I have three heads.
Customer: “You aren’t making any sense.”
Me: *Pause* “I’m sorry I couldn’t help you.” *Walks away*
