I tend to defuse this by saying... "I'm probably going to look stupid... but where is X?"

I needed to buy a certain item (don't remember what it was) at the grocery store; it was on the top shelf and they were far enough back, I (at 5'1") couldn't reach it. I tried to find someone to help me, couldn't find anyone. I really needed this, so I went to the customer service desk and asked if someone could please meet me there to help me. The young teenage boy met me there; I told him what I needed and he turned and looked two feet away where there was entire display of the item sitting right there...I told him that if he didn't laugh at me, I would think badly of him. I'm still embarrassed and this was 5 or 6 years ago!

This happens on a far more regular basis than it should, while I am cleaning the bathrooms...
1) Customer opens the door, which has a BIG sign on it saying 'Cleaning in progress'
2) Pushes past the huge trolley laden with cloths, chemicals, spare paper rolls etc
3) Looks at me standing there with a cloth and cleaning spray in my hand
4) Asks 'Oh, are you cleaning in here?
One day I swear I'm going to reply 'What gave it away? Tell me!'Engaged to the sweet Mytical He is my Black Dragon (and yes, a good one) strong, protective, the guardian. I am his Silver Dragon, always by his side, shining for him, cherishing him.

Quoth pinky View PostI worked at an Arby's once. For anyone who doesn't have one in their town, they are popular for selling Roast Beef. A lady comes through our drive through and asks my CW, "Do you sell Roast Beef?""She didn't observe the cardinal rule: Don't F**K with people who handle your food"
