Closing tonight. It's 3 minutes until close. A lady (HL) comes up to me and asks about our garden tubs. We don't handle garden tubs in the paint department, but we do have big galvanized tubs.
So she's looking at the tubs and buckets, and reaches out for the biggest size we have and says to herself "No, that's too small."
Me: "That's a 15 gallon tub. It's the biggest we carry here."
HL: "Really? Well, it's too small for my needs. I have a horse."
Me: "Oh. Yeah, you're probably right. Your horse would never fit in there."
She laughed so hard, she snorted.

Thank you very much for the best laug uI have had tonight. I believe that this will be the post I talk about the most this week,LMFAO.
Isn't is fun when you can joke with the customer and they laugh with you, rather than getting all offended? Wish more customers were so easygoing.
