Thankful For Not Fudging Up Your Thanksgiving
(It’s the day before Thanksgiving and I’m stocking the baking aisle, which has been largely cleaned out at this point, much to the frustration and anger of many last-minute shoppers.)
Customer: “Excuse me. Do you have any [Brand] chocolate fudge icing?”
Me: “I’m sorry, but that particular icing is out of stock. People have been asking for it and we’ve already checked out back; there’s none in the store. I’m sorry.” *braces for angry response*
Customer: *sigh* “I guess that’s what I get for waiting until the last minute. You have a lovely Thanksgiving!” *walks off*
(I stood there dumbfounded. I was beginning to doubt there was such a thing as a polite last-minute shopper.)
