    Another interesting question at work

    Well, thought I'd share a brief ( no pun intended ) encounter while being kilted at work.

    Let us set the stage here......I was at work at one of the hardware big-box stores on a busy Saturday. Lots of folks wanting help in finding what they're looking for. About mid afternoon a young lady, fairly sharply dressed, approaches me and stops to ask a question. Facing me she said, " Sir, do you have large ball bearings", ar which time a look came across her face in realizing what she had just asked a man wearing a kilt. Naturally I wanted to respond with a catchy little phrase such as " Miss, it takes a rather bold woman to ask a kilted man if he has large ball bearings", but I refrained and remained in cool composure. You could tell she was in almost a panic, realizing what she had said. I simply responded, with a smile, " Miss, I do not believe "we" have any large ball bearings, but I'd be glad to show you where the ones we have are"....at which time I escorted the red-faced, embarrassed woman to the drawers in a cabinet were she could regain her composure. All the while laughing in my mind as to the position she had placed herself in...LOL. Another True Story.
