Me: “Hi, what can I do for you?”
Customer: “Um… I need some…” *whispers* “…tampons?”
Me: “Excuse me?”
Customer: “Some tampons, please.”
Me: “I’m sorry, ma’am, I think you have the wrong store.”
Customer: “No, I don’t. My husband told me to come here and get them!”
Me: “Ma’am, I’m sorry. We don’t sell those here.”
Customer: “But you have to. He said he got some here last week.”
(I realize she probably means tapcons, which are masonry screws.)
Me: “Do you mean tapcons?”
Customer: “Yeah, that could be it. I don’t know why he told me to get tampons. That doesn’t make any sense.”
