Walks up to a house door.
Ding Dong (waits 2 minutes).
Hello?
Yes, is this Corals Anonymous?
Uh, yes. Hold on a second (closes door). (I wait another couple minutes- it happens a bunch more).
Door opens a crack.
Hi. I'm here to pick up the corals I bought.
Uh, oh. Ok. What's your name? (I give my name). Ok, wait a second.
Door closes. (I wait a couple more minutes).
Door opens after a couple minutes. Uh, we weren't expecting you. Could you wait a few minutes while we pack up your corals?
Sure, I guess?
Door closes. (I wait a couple more minutes).
Door opens. Hi, so we're really busy right now. We're packing up tomorrow's shipments. Could you go wait in your car? It will be about 10 minutes.
Uh, whether I wait here at the door or wait in my car, what's the difference? And since the shipments are tomorrow and I'm here now, shouldn't you pack my corals first? I mean, I am here now, waiting.
Well, we changed our computer systems and we didn't know you were coming today.
Well, I put on my order that I would be picking up today. Didn't you see that? (Silence- door closes. I wait a few more minutes).
Door opens. Here are your corals and your 5 snails. We threw 3 extra for you.
Oh, really? THREE more? Wow, thanks. (Turns and begins walking away).
Hope you come shop with us again!
Uh, based on my experience today, I won't be shopping with you again... (continues walking away).
