Gone Shopping?!?
Published Sep 01, 2003

The woman was always frequenting small antique shops, but regardless of what she saw there, she always complained about something. The quality was poor, the prices too high, or the selection was limited.
The shop owners took it in stride, but one day, while ranting and raving, she yelled at the clerk, "Why is it I never manage to get what I ask for in your shop?"
The clerk simply smiled and replied, "Possibly, ma'am, because we're too polite."
