Unable To Size Up Their Sales
Clothing Store | Working
| February 24, 2016
(I’m trying on business suits in a fancy store. Size 46, the biggest size on display, turns out to be a bit too small.)
Me: “Excuse me; do you have this suit in a size 48?”
Saleswoman: “I’m afraid not. We only get one of each item in that size, and they get sold right away.”
Me: “May I suggest that you ask corporate for more size 48 clothes, then?”
Saleswoman: “Oh, no, we couldn’t do that. Nobody wants to buy such big clothes!”
