The Karma Of Capitalism
Me: “Can I help you, sir?”
Customer: “Can you… do… this coupon?” *holds out coupon*
Me: “Yes, our two-for-one special. What flavors would you like?”
(The customer then dictates two particularly long and complicated orders.)
Customer: “I don’t like the energy you gave off while making those ice creams. Make them again.”
Me: “Okay… I’ll try to change my energy, sir.”
(Later, after I re-did the order.)
Me: “That would be $3.66, please.”
Customer: “But I have a coupon.”
Me: “A two-for-one means you have to pay for one of the two ice creams.”
Customer: “Pay…? But… free?”
Me: “You have to pay, yes.”
Customer: “But I just wanted free ice-cream…”
Me: “Do you even have any money?”
Customer: “What the h*** do I need money for? I have a coupon!”
