Some Customers Just Want To Be A Rotten Fish

(In our local supermarket, you can buy fresh fish. One day, I witness this:)

Employee: *wraps up fish for a customer and puts it in a special plastic bag* “Would you like me to seal the bag for you?”

Customer: “Yes, please.”

(The employee seals the bag — airtight! — and hands it to the customer.)

Employee: “There you go, ma’am.”

Customer: *smells the sealed bag* “This fish smells old!”

Employee: “I can assure you it’s not.”

Customer: “We’ll see about that. If I’m getting sick from eating your fish, I’ll come back tomorrow and I’ll sue you guys for selling me rotten fish!”

Employee: “Of course, ma’am, have a nice day!”

Me: “Wow! How was she even able to smell something through sealed plastic?”

Employee: “She wasn’t. She just needs to come up with something every time she shops here. I wonder why she’s always coming back, even though we apparently have the worst service and products.”

(I never found out if she did return the next day, but I sure hope she didn’t.)
