  • Why aren't they the SAME?????

    I had this all typed up two days ago and then my internet decided it didn't like me

    Anyway, I work in a pharmacy. We sell other stuff besides medicine, and the past week or so, we've had live plants (bamboo and the like in little pots) for sale by the front register. A woman (W) and her daughter come up to the register, but get sidetracked by the plants. They ooh and aah for a while, then bring three of the bamboo plants up to the register.

    W: "Are these all the same?"
    Me: "They are all the same price, yes ma'am."
    Daughter: "I want the one in the black pot." (they are ALL in black pots!!)
    W: "No, are they all the SAME?????"
    Me:
    W: "Are they all going to be the same when I take them home?"
    Me: (I couldn't exactly figure out what she wanted me to say) "Well ma'am, they are all live plants, so they will all grow a little different."
    W: "Well I don't want them then!" And she and her daughter toddle off.

    Wha....? Did she think they were all going to look identical? Completely, totally identical? Maybe she didn't realize they were all the same species of plant...??
    When you start at zero, everything's progress.
