When Push Comes To Shove
A customer brings in a skateboard to the returns desk.
Customer: “I need to return this.”
Me: “What was the issue with it?”
Customer: “It doesn’t go.”
Me: “Are there issues with the wheels?”
Customer: “Let me show you.”
He calls his son over, who the skateboard was originally for, and gets him to stand on it.
Customer: “See?”
Me: “See what?”
Customer: “It isn’t going.”
His son is just standing on it. Zero attempt to use a foot to push forward is being made.
Me: “Well, yeah?”
Customer: “Why isn’t it going?”
Me: “Because it isn’t Aladdin’s magic carpet.”
