Her Reaction Was More Than A Little Vanilla
I work at a small, family-owned cafe on the beach. We serve basic things like hotdogs and burgers, and we only have a few basic selections of ice cream.
Me: “Hello, welcome. What would you like?”
Customer: “What are your ice cream flavours?”
I point to the sign with flavours displayed.
Customer: *Not looking at the sign* “Do you have liquorice ice cream?”
Me: “No.”
I point to the sign again.
Customer: “Do you have orange? Or at least mango sorbet?!”
Me: *Pointing to the sign* “We have strawberry, vanilla, or chocolate.”
Customer: *Angry* “Well, you need to have raspberry! I mean, why don’t you have raspberry?!”
I try to explain that, because we are such a small business, we don’t have fancy ice cream flavours.
Customer: “Unbelievable!”
She stormed off.
