Heard on the Selling Floor


I didn’t realise that I could care any less about retail than I did, but since resigning the flippant side of me has gone a bit feral…and I have to say, that I am absolutely loving it.

A mother / daughter duo came shopping today and were trying to find something for a son / brother…or the girls boyfriend.

I don’t know, nor do I care in the slightest.

Anyway, they were shopping in another brand and asked me a stupid question.

Needless to say, they got a stupid answer.

“What do you prefer out of these two?”

This isn’t the stupid question.

Pointing at one of the garments I replied, “that one.”

“Why?”

THAT was the stupid question.

“Um, well, the other one is just plain ugly…”

She stared. I’d like to think it was in shock. I shrugged my shoulders and walked away.
