Quote of the Day: Not Always Right
A homeowner was having a yard sale. They happened to have an "OPEN" and "Hours" sign from their old store, so they put it up as a joke:
[A customer in a rather nice car pulls up.]
customer: “What kind of store is this?”
homeowner: "It’s a yard sale. I just happen to have the signs and thought they would be funny.”
customer: “Oh... okay.”
[The customer proceeds to browse for a few minutes.]
Customer: “Is this used?”
homeowner: “Yes.”
customer: “How about this? Is this used?”
homeowner: “Yes...”
customer: “WHAT NERVE DO YOU HAVE SELLING USED ITEMS? THIS IS THE WORST STORE I’VE BEEN TO!”
homeowner: “This is a yard sale. That’s generally how it works. People sell their used goods.”
customer: “I’ve never heard of nonsense like that. Nobody wants someone’s used things. I’m reporting you to the Better Business Bureau!”
homeowner: “Go right ahead. Have a nice day.”
