I didn\'t know you knew what you were talking about
... those were the words that a guy in a knife store said to me today. Here's the story...
I went to the knife shop in the mall today. I saw that they had an A2 in the display window. Well seeing as how my husband is now wanting a blue A2 'cuz I have a red A2, I asked the guy,
ME: "Can you please tell me what color that A2 Aviator is in your display window?"
Stupid sales guy: "I think it's green... they're all green, aren't they?" (... as he goes to the display to get the A2)
ME: "No, the color of the light."
Stupid sales guy: "It's white... they are all white."
ME: "No, they're not."
Stupid sales guy: "Oh! It's red... it has three little red lights and one big white light... see?" (... as he shines it on the counter)
ME: "Yes, I know how it works. I have a red one. I want a blue one. Do you have any blue ones?"
Stupid sales guy: "No, but I can order one for you."
ME: "No, thank you. If I have to order it, I can get it cheaper elsewhere."
Stupid sales guy: "Oh ok. I'm sorry for the confusion... I didn't know that you knew what you were talking about."
ME: "That's ok... thank you."
And I left... mumbling to myself... "... and I'm sorry that you have NO IDEA what you're talking about."
