CHARACTERS:
CUSTOMER: A very testing customer who makes the assistant run up and down the shop consistently.
ASSISTANT: Not a very good example of customer service.

IN A TYPICAL HIGHSTREET SHOE SHOP

CUSTOMER:

(trying on shoes)

Hello, was wondering do you have these in a size 11 at all?

ASSISTANT:

Absolutely, I'll just take a look hold on!

(Assistant runs in to the store room, and runs back promptly with the shoes.)

There we are, try it on sir.

CUSTOMER:

Great, thanks. Oh wait, sorry they seem a tight, could you maybe get me the 12 instead?

ASSISTANT:

Certainly, il be right back.

(Again, runs in to the store room and returns with the shoes.)

Here you go, does that fit better for you, sir?

CUSTOMER:

Hmm, yeah I think I'll try the size 11's again actually.

ASSISTANT:

Very well.

(becoming tired goes to the store room and back with the shoes.)

. Okay doke, here you are!

CUSTOMER:

(pointing to a different pair of shoes.)

Actually do you have any of those in a size 12?

ASSISTANT:

I will go and see for you.

(very tired, goes and gets the shoes.)

Alright here we go!

CUSTOMER:

Right, infact could you bring me them all back in size 11?

ASSISTANT:

Of course I can!

(returns holding a knife)

Try this one!

(Stabs the customer)

Does that fit better for you? No? How about this?

(Stabs him again.)

I think this looks great on you!

(turns him round and pushes him towards the shop door.)

Take a walk, see if it feels good.

(The man stumbles out of the shop in pain, the assistant stares for a bit then realises what he has done.)

F**k.

(Drops the knife and run away)

You are very, very dark Kim lol
I thought when he got the knife out he was gonna chop off one of his toes and hand it him and say "see if they fit now sir!"

I like it but a surprise last comment from the customer might finish it better?
