Be Careful Where You Insert That Battery
AUSTRIA, PHARMACY, STUPID, VIENNA | RIGHT | JULY 31, 2019
Customer: “I need a medical thermometer.”
Me: “A digital one that’s battery-operated or a glass one without a battery?”
Customer: “I don’t know.”
(Since a digital one gives results faster, I grab one and hand it to the customer.)
Customer: “Oh, no, I’ve got one of these at home, but it has no battery, and it’s not working!”
Me: “These run all on battery. Maybe the battery in yours is empty.”
Customer: *thinking hard for a minute* “Maybe that’s why it’s not working anymore.”
Me: *internal facepalm*
