Embarrasing Moment!
An old lady was doing her shopping at the local department store. She picked up all her purchases and pushed her cart to the counter. As the checkout operator was scanning her items he realised that the very last item did not have a price tag or barcode. The checkout operator had to do a price check over the loud speaker so he pressed the button and stated the following message: "Price check on Tampax Tampons Mega-Size!" The woman was obviously embarrased as near-by shoppers turned and looked towards her. Meanwhile, the shop attendant at the rear of the store who heard the call misheard the word 'Tampax' for 'Thumb Tacks'. The attendant then replied back over the speaker, in a very business like tone,he announced the following message: "Do you mean the ones you can push in with your thumb, or the ones you have to pound with a hammer?" The poor woman buried her head in her hands and ran out of the store!liuxuepaper.com
