Practice What You Preach (Please)
(I’m serving a mother and her two children.)
Me: “Are you ready to order?”
Mother: “Tell the lady what you would like.”
Son: “I’ll have the chicken fingers.”
Mother: “Say please!”
Son: *sheepishly* “Please.”
Mother: “And what would you like?”
Daughter: “A hot dog!”
Mother: “Say please!”
Daughter: “Please.”
Mother: “And I’ll have the fried clams.”
(She never did say “please”.)
