Hasn’t Quite Nailed The Reason For The Purchase

, , , | Right | June 6, 2011

Customer: “Hello.”

Me: “Hello, is there anything you’re after?”

Customer: “Yes, you know that stuff that’s a bit like nail polish, and you put it on your child’s nails to stop them biting them. Do you stock it?”

Me: “Yes, actually we do. I bought some for my sister the other day. Her daughter bites her nails. Would you like me to show you where it’s located, or just give you directions?”

Customer: “Show me.”

(We walk to the aisle.)

Me: “Here you go. We have two brands.”

Customer: “Oh, I’ve tried both of those.”

Me: “Did either of them work?”

Customer: “No, my son didn’t like the taste of them.”
