No Aptitude For Latitude
(I am a customer standing behind a couple, obviously from overseas. The ticket lady had just told them that the cable car is out of order because it’s being serviced.)
Customer: “That’s unacceptable! We’ve come all the way to see the top of Table Mountain!”
(I see that the ticket lady is tired of explaining the same thing over and over, so I chip in.)
Me: “They have to service the cable car because it’s off-season. They don’t want people to get hurt if the cable car breaks.”
Customer: “Well, it’s summer where we come from!”
