Lack Of Vocabulary In The Young
94 Answers
I called into the local Tesco Opticians this morning, to make an appointment for my annual eye test. I was told by the young lady at the desk, that on a day I suggested in two weeks time ( my first available day off as it happens) she told me :
"We ain't got no appointments that day" !
When I gently suggested that what she might have meant is that they hadn't ANY appointments that day, she said ::
" I just told you that ! "
Whatever this rather silly young lady talks about in the Pub with her friends, am I expecting too much that Tesco could at least have taught how to deal with Customers just a little better ?

For what it's worth, I actually agree with Mikey. If people aren't corrected, how do they learn? After all, isn't that what teachers do? If the young lady in question had given Mikey a bill that was totalled incorrectly with say £10 added, how many of you would have spoken up then?

She was unprofessional and was there for my convenience, not the other way around.
But part of the point that I am making is that she seemed unaware that I was correcting her, as she didn't know what her mistake was in the first place.
Not sure why I shouldn't have corrected her....I did it gently after all.

If only they were all as literate and had as wide a range of vocabulary as this young lady:
