Ways To Piss Me Off : 2

Stupid Customer 1: Is Zara closing down?
Me: No.
Stupid Customer 1 hesitates, waiting for my explanation.
No other replies from me.
Stupid Customer 1: Then why is the store so empty?
Me: It's the sales and we're getting ready for the new collection. (said monotonous-ly)
(For your info, we've got the 50% off banners all over our display window)
Gives Stupid Customer 1 a fake smile, chopping a big 'DUH' on her face in my mind, and i continue on with my work.

Stupid Customer 2: Why is the store so empty?
Me: Sales.
Stupid Customer 2 waits for an explanation while i think to myself, 'It's so fucking obvious', and gives her the smiling 'what-else-you-want-to-know' look.
Stupid Customer 2: It's not closing down right?
Me: No mdm, it's sales period.
My blunt answer leaves the customer's dumb curiousity hanging in suspense and awkwardness. She thinks about whether to ask more questions.
Stupid Customer 2:(laughs to herself) oh, the store is so empty, i thought it's closing down or what.
Me: (cutting her off) No mdm, we're also preparing for our new collection.
Then i turn and walk right into the fitting room to complain about it to my friends.

I told you, i hate to repeat myself.
