3 words does not make a sentence! Well, at least most of the time anyway.
I went to get my eyebrows done yesterday. I've been going to the same place for over a year now, and I'm usually able to get the same girl. She wasn't working yesterday. I had never met the girl who was able to take me, but I hoped it wouldn't be a problem. The 'Help Wanted' sign in the window should have been a clue. Employers looking to hire often get desperate when they are short staffed, and this seems to be the case here as well.
When she was ready for me I was not asked to follow her, or anything even similar. She waited until she caught my eye and then pointed to the chair. Okay, I thought, maybe she's not a chatty one. Now I'd say that was an understatement.
Eyebrow Girl: Clean them?
Me: I'm sorry?
EG: Clean them?
Me: Are you asking if I cleaned them? ( As she is reaching for a cotton ball and sanitizer) .
EG: *sigh* Do you want me to clean them up? ( Points to wax)
Me: Uh, yes. I believe that would be the point of my visit. ( No, I want you to get rid of them all together, take it all!)
EG: OK, finished
Me: You missed (pointing) here, here and here
EG: You didn't ask.
Me: Excuse me?
EG: People have to ask me.
Me: okay.. (waiting ) so.. can you do it?
EG: I guess
She better not wonder why there was no tip.
