Everyone seems to be in such a hurry to scream 'prejudice' these
days................
A customer asked, "In what aisle can I find the Polish sausage?"
The clerk asks, "Are you Polish?"
The guy, clearly offended, says, "Yes I am. But let me ask you
something.
If I had asked for Italian sausage, would you ask me if I was Italian?
Or if I had asked for German Bratwurst, would you ask me if I was
German?
Or if I asked for a kosher hot dog would you ask me if I was Jewish?
Or if I had asked for a Taco, would you ask if I was Mexican?
Or if I asked for some Irish whiskey, would you ask if I was Irish?"
The clerk says, "No, I probably wouldn't."
The guy says, "Well then, because I asked for Polish sausage, why did
you ask me if I'm Polish?"
The clerk replied, "Because you're in Ace Hardware."

ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day. ☺
Sandee, many blondes come from that area of the world.
DeleteYou always manage to find stuff that makes me snort when I get to the punch line. Thanks, Odie.

ReplyDeleteedutcher, they don't want us to leave.
DeleteVery funny. And time sensitive. Nice photo of the ACE store in TRUKEEEEE.
ReplyDeleteUnknown, Funny how we both know that. And it used to be the old Safeway building.
DeleteA first heard a version of this story decades ago.
ReplyDeleteA guy goes into a shop and walked up to the counter and ordered a pound
of Kielbasa and a half pound of potato salad.
The guy behind the counter asked the customer if he was Polish,
The man replied Yes, how could you tell?
Well Sir this is a F&^%*ng hardware store!
Unknown, mine is a little kinder and gentler.
DeleteI guess Ace isn't the place with the helpful hardware man!
ReplyDeleteProof, he was helpful.
