another day ... another dumbass

Wow. They never cease to amaze me.

customer - "do you sell single stamps?"
me - "no sorry, we sell first and second class in books of six or twelve
customer - "oh, so I can't just buy one stamp?"
me - "no dear ... like I just said books of six or twelve"
customer - "hhmmm, can i get single stamps from that till over there?"
me - "the till next to me? no dear still just books of six or twelve?
customer - "do they come in fours?"
me in my head (how many times do I need to say this??!!)
me - "no dear, like I said ... sixes or twelves"
customer - "fair enough i'll take twelve"

HOW!!!!! How do we get from begging for a single stamp, to bartering under the minimum six to just going right in for the maximun of twelve?????
On a plus side .... wont be seeing her in a while!

Another day tomorrow and generally saturday's bring out the best in the general public .... If nothing else it will give me plenty to write about!!!

Happy weekend everyone!
