No, that’s not why I want this.
While I always appreciate eager customer service representatives, sometimes they just don’t get it. Just the other day, I walked into a store with the purpose of buying a scale to weigh food. The employee working at the time insisted on helping, which was fine, but he was so bad at doing so.
“Can I help you find something?” he asked immediately upon my arrival.
“Sure, I need a scale.”
“No problem, we have scales that are perfect for weighing out drugs; come with me.”
“Whoa, whoa, whoa,” I said, trying to catch his attention after he turned around. “I don’t need this for drugs; I want to weigh food with it.”
“Oh, right, sorry,” he said, winking at me. “Let me show you this food scale over here.”
He proceeded to show me a small scale and commented how I could easily fit it in my pocket to take it around town. In the middle of his long-winded sales pitch, I saw the Digital Kitchen Scale on a shelf.
“What about this one?” I asked.
“Well, that’s a good scale, but the problem is that you can’t fit it in your pocket or use it discreetly.”
“Why would I need to use this scale discreetly?”
We went back a forth a number of times before I almost forcibly purchased the Digital Kitchen Scale. Upon completion of the sale, he asked if he could buy drugs from me.
“I told you a thousand times, this scale is for food! Seriously!”
