The Inconvenient Truth About My Store Hours
On Sunday my store hours are 12:00-5:00.
Around 5:10 yesterday I closed up shop and did my closing routine.
At 5:15 a guy knocks on my door.
GUY: "Are you open?"
ME: "Nope...we closed at 5:00."
GUY: "Everytime I come here you're closed...it's very inconvenient"
ME: "What's inconvenient?
GUY: "When I come here and you're closed."
ME: "You should come here when we're open."
GUY: "I mean your store hours are inconvenient."
ME: "I have no choice."
GUY: "Hmmmm."
ME: "Mind if I ask you a question?"
GUY: "Sure...go ahead."
ME: "If you know what my store hours are why do you come after I'm closed?"
GUY: "I figure you might me open."
ME: "Anything I can help you with today?"
GUY: "I'm looking for a joke gift for my Dad...do you have any pictures of Gary Cooper?"
ME: "I don't think so...I can put the lights on and check but I'm pretty sure I don't have any."
GUY: "Don't bother...I'll swing by tomorrow afternoon."
ME: "I'm almost postive...I don't have any pictures of Gary Cooper."
GUY: "I'll check tomorrow..."
------
TODAY:
GUY: "I'm back...just checking for those Gary Cooper pictures."
ME: "I don't have any."
GUY: "I'll check back..."
12:00- 5:00 AM or PM?
ReplyDeleteDo you still have that box of broken toys? Looking for something nice for my kids.
ReplyDeleteI'm a joke gift?
ReplyDelete*sad indian tear slides down cheek*
I also loved that Gary Cooper stuff is now in the 'joke gift aisle'
ReplyDeleteHe came back today while you're open. He's capable of learning!
ReplyDeleteI'm not kidding...I just bought a DVD of Gary Cooper in "High Noon."
