Morning

A woman stands behind a counter wearing a button that says, “Good morning!” Her job is to sell people coffee and donuts and egg-and-cheese sandwiches. The bells on the door jingle and a man in a suit walks into the shop.

“Good morning,” she says, as the man steps up to the counter. “How are you today?”

“Mmmmmyeeeaaahhhh,” says the man, looking up at the menu board on the wall above the woman’s head. He has not yet made eye contact with her. “Can I get a… fried egg with ham and cheese on a toasted plain bagel?”

The woman turns around to start making it, marveling at how rude people can be.
