"I Want An Egg!"

[Lace Neil Singer]

Today, I was serving a customer when as per usual, I checked a carton of eggs. 1 egg was broken. So I offered to get the customer a new carton of eggs. The customer replied, "No thanks, just get me one egg." I offered her a whole new carton but no, she just wanted 1 egg. So a supervisor had to go and dig around in the eggs for another carton of broken eggs just to give this woman 1 egg to replace the broken one in her box.

behold the power of suckiness:

'look! i can get all of these peons to run a pointless errand simply because i want them to, even though a new carton makes sense. whee!'

Not to mention the thrill she got by making a whole queue of people wait an age for her pointless request to be fufilled. Bet that made her feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

Ironically, I'll bet she thought she was doing you guys a favour, because you only had to run and get one egg instead of a full dozen.

Killing 'em with kindness, she is...

Anbody remember Clerks? Perhaps she's a guidance counselor.

She already had 11 PERFECT eggs, and dammit, she didn't want to have to find another whole perfect carton. She'd rather have 11 perfect eggs, and one imperfect one.

Were the remaining 11 eggs extra special gold plated....ovaliscious....hand selected?

Maybe she liked that particular carton.

[BookstoreEscapee]

Would she have even noticed if you got a different carton?

*now humming: the incredible, edible egg...lalala*

You could have gotten a whole new carton and then did the . . .

"Hey, look over there!" and switched out the cartons when she wasn't looking.

"Ohhh, looky there, we found the egg for you and already replaced it . . ."

Damn, you beat me to it . . . I was thinking the same thing.

This is where you say "Okay! One egg, coming right up!", and produce a plastic toy easter egg.

For bonus points, you can hold it behind your back, and grunt and strain like you're trying to lay said egg.

Just getting into the Easter spirit.

Be careful when doing that . . . some customers may begin to expect that all the time.

At least you didn't get a Milkmaid to top off your day!

An egg freak is enough for one day, isn't it? lol.
