Sometimes i just wonder...

WHAT IN THE WORLD PEOPLE ARE THINKING!!! OK. Here's the story.

[Brennen looks at Grace's hand. He notices something strange.]

Brennen: Look. Another diamond fell out of your ring.

Grace (almost in tears): WHAT!? UGH! I've had it with this!!

Brennen: It's a good thing we got that warranty.

[The warranty that Brennen is talking about is a lifetime warranty they bought for the ring. Basically it covers just about everything, including missing diamonds.]

Grace: THIS IS THE FIFTH DIAMOND IN A YEAR!! THIS IS RIDICULOUS!

Brennen (trying to calm her): It's ok..it's ok...

TWO WEEKS LATER

Salesperson at Samuels: What can I do for you?

[Grace says nothing, just hands him the ring]

Salesperson [in baby talk]: Is your warranty up today?

Grace [looks at him incredulously]: It shouldn't be. It's a lifetime warranty.

Salesperson: Oh....

[Salesperson takes ring over to alcove and doesn't return for 3 or 4 minutes]

Salesperson: You know there's a diamond missing?

Grace [starting to get angry]: OHMIGOSH! WHAT?!? Yes, this is the fifth one in a year.

Salesperson: Oh... (really?? can't you put a coherent thought together???)

Grace [Trying to keep her cool]: Ya, I think they're coming out at work. I guess i'll just have to find something else to wear to work.

Salesperson [while filling out paperwork]: Oh....where do you work?

Grace: Jamba Juice.

Salesperson: Oh.....(REALLY??) Well this is going to take two weeks to repair because we have to send it to our jeweler in Texas.

Grace: WTF?!?! What do you mean you have to send it to Texas? Really? Because usually it's done in two days. [Grace is probably bright red]

Salesperson: Well it should be done in two weeks.

Grace: Whatever. I just want it fixed.

Salesperson: You know, people who work in the food industry usually just wear their band to work.

Grace: No, REALLY?? Tell me something I don't know. Yep, well, looks like that's what i'm going to be doing from now on.

Salesperson: Did you want to look at some bands now to wear in the meantime?

OK. Stop right there. REALLY?? You sell me, no, MY HUSBAND, a piece of crap ring and now you want me to BUY ANOTHER because the one I have is falling apart??? ARE YOU KIDDING ME RIGHT NOW?????? I wanted to reach over the counter and smack the guy. Or just ask him "How 'bout you just fix my ring so it never falls apart again." One word to describe this guy. AUDACITY.
