Dumb Questions People Ask Me At Work. Part 1


A little background information about me: I work at the Delmar Foodlion in Delmar, DE. For those of you who do not know what a Foodlion is; imagine Walmart, take away everything not food related, add friendlier  employees, and you have Foodlion. I have been working there about eleven months now, and i have heard some pretty stupid questions in my time. Here are just a few of the questions and my commentary on them.
  1. "Where are the bathrooms at?" Ok look, at the back end of the store there is a big blue sign plastered against the wall that says 'restrooms'. You can see it from the front of the store as you walk in.
  2. "How long do eggs last?" I don't know if you have ever bought eggs before, but there is a bunch of numbers on the side called the 'expiration date', and if you look around, those numbers are on a bunch of other food items in the store. 
  3. "Where is the sugar at?" It might be under the the aisle marked under 'Sugar' but that is just a guess. 
  4. "Where is the couscous at?" I have no idea what couscous is, let alone where it is.  
That is all I can think of at the moment, I am sure there is a lot more that I have forgotten. Be on the look out for part two.
