Blog: Fun with Customers #1

Posted On January 29, 2015

From a couple days ago…

Tuesday:

Customer: What are the Seattle Seahawks colours? I’m making a sweater for my grandson and he just loves that team.
Me: Uh… pretty sure they’re navy blue, dark green and grey.
Customer: (holds on to aqua yarn) So this colour will work for the green?
Me: No, it’s more this. (Points to dark green yarn)
Customer: No, that won’t work, it’s too dark green.

She insists on buying the aqua.

Wednesday:

Same customer returns the aqua yarn.

Customer: We picked the wrong colour yesterday… It’s supposed to be dark green.

Thought but not spoken: Who’s “we,” bitch? You insisted that the dark green wouldn’t work for the dark green because it was dark green.
