The Chicken Crossed The Road To Get Out Of A Jam
(I am working in a chicken shop. It has ‘chicken’ in the name, chickens all over the decor, and chickens on display.)
Customer: “Do you sell burgers?”
Me: “We sell chicken burgers; would you like one?”
Customer: “No, I want a beef burger.”
Me: “Sorry, we only sell chicken here.”
Customer: “Can you make me a jam sandwich?”
Me: “No, I’m sorry, we only sell chicken here. I can make you a chicken sandwich.”
Customer: “No, I want a jam sandwich. Can’t you just make me one? I’ll pay for it.”
Me: “I would happily make you a jam sandwich, but we don’t have any jam here; just chicken.”
Customer: “You don’t have any jam?”
Me: “Sorry, just chicken.”
Customer: “Okay.”
(He walked out and headed toward the fish and chip shop. I wondered if he was going to ask them for a jam sandwich.)
