Limping Through College
Customer: “Can you help me find the book for my class?”
Me: “Sure. Do you have your course schedule?”
Customer: “Uh, no. Why?”
Me: “They tell me what books are needed for each class.”
Customer: “Cool.”
Me: “So, I need to know what class you’re taking.”
Customer: *blank stare*
Me: “English, math, physics, biology? If you can tell me what the course is, we might be able to find it that way.”
Customer: “Sorry, dude. I’m new to this whole college thing.”
Me: “How about your professor’s name? We’ve got quite a few professors that only teach one class.”
Customer: “My class is at night. Wednesdays, I think. And my teacher is a lady, with a limp.”
Me: *Looking at a course card.* “I found it! Wednesday nights, with the lady who limps.”
Customer: “Bro, you’re a lifesaver.”
Me: “I was kidding.”
Customer: “So, that’s not my book, then?”
