Decorating a cake – how easy is it?
(The bakery had just closed. I had clocked out, and was on my way out of the store.)
Lady: “Excuse me, could you decorate this cake for me?”
Me: “I’m sorry ma’am. My shift is over, and the bakery is closed.”
Lady: “But I need it done for tomorrow! If you don’t do it, I’ll call your manager!”
Me: “Ma’am, what do you do for a living?”
Lady: “I’m a dentist…”
Me: “Would you like to look at my teeth after your shift ends, for free?”
Lady: “That’s different. My job is hard. Anyone could do your job.”
Me: “Then you won’t mind taking that cake home and decorating it yourself.”
