Because my job makes me laugh. Yes, these did all happen this week:
- A man comes to tell me he was looking at an art magazine, then looked up, saw me, and thought to himself, 'Now there's a real live piece of art!' The funniest part? He wasn't, in any way, shape or form, hitting on me.
- In contrast to the above, a man is looking for a Photoshop magazine. (Can you guess where this one is heading?) Unfortunately we can't find it. Therefore he asks if, in recompense, he can come in later to take a picture of me, then make that into a painting, then he'll come and give me a copy of that painting. Now, had he been man number one, I might've taken him at his word. This man, though, I kinda wonder what he considers a 'painting' and whether I'd be able to show it to coworkers.
- Perhaps the funniest. I had a call asking if we sold male enhancement pills. What about being a bookstore makes you think we sell male enhancement pills? I mean, really.
