I Know Better Than To Work Here
(I’m shopping at the local [Largest Retailer in America] just after leaving work elsewhere. I’m not wearing any clothes that look anything like this company’s uniforms. I’m in the bottled water aisle, looking for a particular brand when this happens.)
Customer: *asks something as though I were an employee*
Me: “Sorry, ma’am, I don’t work here. I have no idea.”
Customer: “Oh, sorry.”
(I get a thought just as she’s about to head off…)
Me: “Out of curiosity, what made you think I work here?”
Customer: “You just looked like you knew what you were doing.”
Me: *laughs* “I do, and that’s why I don’t work here.”
