Too Dumb To Pee
(Our bathrooms are out of order, due to something deep in the pipes. Toilets, sinks, water fountain, all out. All are located in a short hallway near the front door, which we block with a bench. We then post “OUT OF ORDER” signs all over the bench, the walls, etc. And yet, as I work the register just outside the hall, I get someone walking up, looking at the signs, asking me, every ten minutes or so, “Are the bathrooms out of order?” Finally, I can’t take it anymore…)
Customer: *walks up, looks at signs, turns to me* “Hey, are the bathrooms out of order?”
Me: “No. It was a test. I’m sorry, but you failed.”
Customer: *looks at me, looks at signs again* “Oh. Okay.”
(And then, he literally hung his head and wandered away.)
