A woman walks into our store and asks if we have premade sandwiches. I say no but the deli can make sandwiches for her. She walks back towards the deli, stops, and suddenly heads back to the register.
C: "Um....they don't have any sandwiches there. I need a deli that makes sandwiches."
TH: They do make sandwiches. Just go back and ask."
C: "But they don't have any out."
TH: "That's because they don't premake them, but they do make them."
C: "Oh, they should make it more obvious."
Forget the big ass sign with the list of sandwiches prices and ingredients. Or any of the fun facts that I just told her. No, somehow they need to make things more obvious for her.
She walks back and I overhear her ask the deli clerk "Do you have any of them prepackaged tuna salad or ham sandwiches." The clerk tells her that he can make her a fresh one but she shakes her head and starts walking out.
Her final parting shot is that we really, really, need to carry those prepackaged ones. I can't believe that she'd turn down a freshly made sandwich in favor of some vacuum sealed monstrosity that has been sitting in a cooler for who knows how long.
But to each their own, but when someone tells you they don't carry something, trust me, they don't carry it.
