rough start

Current Mood: sick

Last week at University Bookstore I overheard probably one of the best conversations in the world:

Guy 1: ...so I had to start working here, because I got fired from my job at the grocery store.
Guy 2: Dude, that sucks. What happened?
G1: Well, okay. I was assigned to the bakery section, right? And one of my jobs was to rotate the bread stock to make sure it was all fresh.
G2: Mhmmmm...
G1: Well, it turns out that the little twisty ties on the loaves are color coded to tell you what day they were made on. That way you can tell at a glance which ones are too old.
G2: Well, yeah. Makes sense.
G1: Problem is, I'm colorblind. I didn't know that.
G1: So you couldn't tell which tie was colored-
G2: No, I'm colorblind. I didn't know that.
