Not a short story but I recall we read Call of the Wild in school. Some nice animal cruelty for kids to think about.
My mom and her husband were checking out a flat and the real estate agent had their fly open. After that they’d refer to her as “the fly-open” and remind each other of that person every now and then. I wasn’t there yet I remember the case. So I give you second generation memory of an awkward person!
Ah yes.
Also: instead of googling for the opening times better waste everyone’s time by sending a text or an email to the shop and making them spell it out for you!
Also: if you see the shop is clearly closed, lights aren’t on and you can see the opening times on the door and they say it’s not open but someone is inside better start knocking because surely they wish to serve you.
Also: never read the instructions of a product. Instead complain that it’s broken and demand a new product. Repeat.
Also: if you see a price list/menu/price tag or similar and you accidentally read it, better double check the price by asking “does this item cost what it says here”
Also: “employees only” actually means “for adventurous customers”
Also: if it says push, pull, if it says pull, push.
