| Kitty mishap. |

I work in a local chain of stores that sells computer parts.
Thursday night a husband came in looking for an IDE controller; his wife was carrying a carboard box from a pet store. While I was trying to find something for the husband, another lady asked the wife what's in the box. The wife opens the box to reveal - to them, I can't see it from where I am - a kitten, and they both "aww" and "so cute" at it for a while.
Eventually the box ends up on the glass counter. At this point the husband - realizing that IDE controllers aren't exactly common hardware nowadays - mentions that a USB drive enclosure would work just fine. I move to show him what we have, but oh look, there's this pesky box hiding them.
I jerk the box out of the way.
The wife inhales loudly.
I apologize profusely.
She shows me the kitten to, I can only assume, make my life unbearable with remorse and guilt. It was the cutest most innocent kitten I had ever seen. Eventually the husband decides to buy the enclosure, and the couple gets on their way.
You think in retrospect I could have used the Schrödinger excuse? |
