(Three teenagers come up to my register to buy some CD cases.)
Me: “And that comes to $10.33.”
Teenager: “What if my dad was the Prime Minister?”
Me: “I’m sorry?”
Teenager: “What if he came in, and said it was $5?”
Me: “It would still be $10.33?”
(He seems to think this over for a minute.)
Teenager: “Well, what if he was the government?! Then what?”
Me: “The price would still be $10.33.”
Teenager: “Okay, so then, what if Jesus himself came into the store, and came up to you, and said it was $5?”
Me: “Well, Jesus would still have to pay full price. Which is $10.33.”
Teenager: “If Jesus was here, you’d be going to Hell!”
