It's that time of year that brings out the worst in people.
Why I thought it would be different in Costco is beyond me, really. But I did. And as usual, I was wrong. Apparently this is the time of year where people are really intense about things like romaine hearts as I so found out when I was loading my cart full of them and made an enemy in the produce cooler.
"I do, yes." "Well what for?" "Well, for dinner I am catering." "So you're a caterer?" "Yes." "Well then why don't you order romaine from your supplier." "Well I did but there was a mistake and the order was short two cases so I needed more." "Well how is that my problem?" "Excuse me?" "You're in here taking all the romaine and the rest of us will be left with nothing." "But there's like 15 cases left in the stack..." "Well there won't be if people like you come here and wipe it out."
I am sure you know this was a difficult choice for me. But I am working on that. "Well do you need the romaine I have in my cart?" "What?" "Do you need the romaine I have in my cart? I will gladly give it to you." "Well that would be stupid - I can get my own."
"So then your issue with my taking two cases of romaine really isn't about the romaine as much as it is you being a miserable bitch?"

You always manage to say the things I want to say in the exact same situation - except of course I didn't need two cases of romaine. You rock! Posted by: Jennifer at December 17, 2004 03:18 PM ROFL! I never think of anything good to say until I've left the situation. Posted by: Heather at December 18, 2004 06:58 AM You go, Girl! Posted by: Kristin at December 18, 2004 09:54 PM  |
