"I'm looking for a travel

“I’m looking for a travel charger that plugs into the wall for my touchpoint phone.”

“We don’t have any of those up here. Let me check in back” came the perfunctory response from the Sprint PCS accessory guy. Leia and I waited patiently. This was the fifth store I had tried and I was getting desperate as I had no way to charge my phone for the next couple of days. The sales rep came back empty handed.

“We didn’t have any in back” - Zip-Zip - “That phone” - Zip-Zip - “is old.”

Oh my God, is he doing what I think he’s doing? He is. He is zipping and unzipping his fly while he talks to us.

“Yeah I haven’t” - Zip-Zip - “seen any accessories” - Zip-Zip - “for that phone in 4-5 months.”

I better not start laughing, so I’ll look away. Zip-Zip. Uh-oh, that’s not helping. Okay, it’s even harder not to laugh when I’m looking away. I better look back at him.

“You would probably” - Zip-Zip - “be better off buying” - Zip-Zip - “a new phone.”

Leia and I excused ourselves with some vague “Thank you for your help” and fled the store. I was glad she had seen it to because I might have dismissed it as a hallucination had I not had a witness.

What an odd shopping experience.
