I haven't worked in a shop since 1984. Here's a story from about 1982.
A woman walked into the shop to buy a bike. I pull one out as a suggestion. She looks at it and looks at me and says, "You think I would buy THAT bike?! THAT bike? In THAT color? Look at my sneakers!"
Oh, I was supposed to know?
