This Diet Is Really Going Against The Grain

Customer: “Excuse me. You used to stock a drink in the cooler. It was tea. It had no carbs.”

Me: “I’m sorry. We probably don’t have any more. Sometimes they cycle out drinks that don’t sell very well.”

Customer: “It was tea. It had no carbs.”

Me: “I think I know the one you’re thinking of. If it’s not in there, then we’re out. We have some iced tea brewed up if you would like to try that.”

Customer: “How do I know that it doesn’t have carbs?”

Me: “I brewed it myself. I can promise you that there are no carbs.”

Customer: “I want the other tea! You know that soda in there has 33 carbs! You should really stock more options for customers who don’t want to have so many carbs.”

Me: “I’d be happy to give you some of our iced tea, or some water.”

Customer: “Ugh! I don’t want any of that. I want the old tea.”

Me: “Sorry! Is there anything else I can help you with today?”

Customer: “Yes! I’ll have a large cookie.”
