BG: I work in a shoe store (hence the nickname, NotAlBundy... that joke is so old, especially since I'm female). We have a lot of customers not originally from this country that will come in and buy shoes to send home to their families. We also have lots of grandparents that will come in trying to get shoes for their grandkids.
SC: What size shoe does a nine year old wear?
Me: Well, that really depends on the size of the kid, how fast they're growing, all kinds of things.
SC: Well, what's an average size?
Me: Like I said, it really depends. My nine year old nephew wears around a size 3 in kids, but he's kind of small for his age. When I was nine, I wore a ladies size 10, but I was tall for my age. So, there's a huge range.
SC: So, you think I should get a size 4?
(The customers buying shoes to send home will usually just buy something larger than what they bought last time and hope the kid grows into it.)
