what i have just said
book store... busy satuday afternoon shift... sarah is angry... for she is dressed in a stupid white nylon shirt for the double points promotion. she flat out refused to wear it but then was forced to conceed by her stupid manager man who refused to leave until she put it on and then yelled at her... they only ordered XL so sarah and shakti are dressed in white tents...
man : "hi where are your bestsellers?"
Sarah Bookseller : "ummm there is no specific section... what are you looking for in particular?"
man: "i have a friend's birthday"
SB : "Soo.... fiction? non fiction?"
man : "business or autobiography"
SB : "Oh 'Screw it let's do it?'"
(side note : 'Screw it let's do it' is a famous and very popular book written by RIchard Branson)
man : blink blink.... "excuse me?"
SB : realising what she has said : "ummm its over there" points at shelf
man : "oo-o-oh it's a book? i thought...." grins
SB : "hahahah. No." makes shakti help the customer

Very original, anonymous...
Sarah, that is BRILLIANT!!! It's almost as funny as that thing Ness said the other day about chickens...;)
Luke, you keep that chickens story to yourself, ok?! I mean it!
I can be scary apparently (thats what brian says and he should know ;p)
was the man goodlooking?...cause then you could've grinned back...and then the two of you could've just stood there grinning...until one of you let out the impregnated and long awaited "sooooooo..."
i'm sorry for the above...i'm having romantic comedy movie withdrawals...with all this halloween jizz and all...
btw...your blog rocks...to all those who think otherwise...they can go piss on a tree...cause none of us regular readers think that it's boring...*cough*...jk...
HeeHee SE, seriously only u. went back to store yesterday for first time in AGES and it's all changed- i couldnt believe my eyes. It looks really cool tho, but not as homely as it was when we all worked there together... once upon a time...
Luke, I really think u should publish chicken comment... share the love
PS- could be quite interesting to see a scary margaret :-)
hope ur all having fun with ur theses tee hee
Crap! Since when does Margret read blogs...? Now how are we going to skinner about her...?
We could write a book about what happens in our store... of course it really does help having Sarah shaking everything up. Think it might be quite boring without her...
She only tells you guys half the stuff that happens... But you see she gets ppl chatting by asking them arbitrarily what do they do. They looked stunned for a moment, then get a bit of a smug look on their face, and then tell her.
And then Sarah relates how she fits into their career choice, and what she thinks of what they do.... and sometimes you get ppl staying forever because someone is chatting to them.
you should write a chapter in the Mole-rat diaries.
I went to work today to find that the customer "Mr Fokkens" - real ame, you need id to sign up - had just been there. My boss was rolling aorund on the floor laughing...
We also have: Ms Poonan, Ms Smallbone, Mr Pocock, Mr Pooe and a few others that I don't remember right now.
Ah, the joy of knowing your customers surnames!
that is hilarious. I think I would have blinked a couple of times too.
he probably picked his jaw up off the floor too.
priceless
Dearest Sartjie...
You haven't blogged since Saturday.
Lovest Tomtjie.
