The Grapes Of Telepaths
(I’m a merchandiser working one of the stores on my route. A customer approaches me.)
Customer: “White wine!”
Me: “You want a white wine?”
Customer: “White wine!”
Me: “Okay, sir. How about this one?”
(I hold out a bottle of Chardonnay.)
Customer: “That’s yellow. I want white wine.”
Me: “Okay. How about a White Zinfandel?”
Customer: “That’s pink. White wine!”
Me: “Okay, how about this?”
(I hold out a bottle of Pinot Grigio.)
Customer: “That’s clear. I want white!”
Me: “Sir, these are all white wines I’m showing you.”
Customer: “I want a white wine!”
Me: “Sir, these are white wines. ”
Customer: “That one’s yellow. That one’s pink. That one’s clear. I want white wine!”
(This went on for another ten minutes until his friend showed up. Turns out he wanted a yellow Chardonnay.)
