Be Careful

(I am frantically cutting meat trying to fill a counter after 3 days of snow, no trucks, and tons of business. )

Me: Can I help you?

Customer: Yeah. You’re cutting what I need. 

Me: Top sirloin? 

Customer: Oh, I thought that was fillet mignon. 

Me: It’ll take me 10 minutes, but I can cut you a few. 

Customer: I’ll wait. 

Me: Okay. 

Customer: You know, I went to my office on Broad Street this morning. The sidewalks are so icy. 

Me: Yeah. It’s pretty rough out there. 

Customer: It’s really dangerous. There is no reason that anyone should be out on the roads. 

Me: Yeah….um….here’s your steak. Be safe out there.
