Intentions As Clear As Glass
(A customer comes up to the cash register holding her bill in one hand and a half-full glass of soda in the other. She sets the bill on the counter and hands me the glass.)
Me: “I’m sorry, ma’am. Did your waitress forget to bring you a to-go cup?”
Customer: “Oh, no. I’m all finished, thanks.”
Me: “Okay. I’ll just take this back to the dish-room to have it washed.”
Customer: “Actually, could you just empty it and bring it back up here?”
Me: “You mean empty it into a to-go cup?”
Customer: “No, just dump the soda out and bring me the empty glass.”
Me: “What are you going to do with an empty glass?”
Customer: “Shove it in my purse and haul my a** out of here!”
