I had a woman come into the store with her two kids.
They were there because her oldest child -a boy- had earned $8 and wanted to buy a fish.
Which I had to gently direct them away from our fish wall and to our betta fish when they said that they only had a bowl.
But it was rather...interesting to interact with this woman.
Because she always sounded so surprised/amazed at everything.
Her breath would get all high and breathy, her eye brows would raise and her eyes would widen.
Really...I couldn't help but think this particular customer has been around little kids for too long. Because it was the sort of reaction that you'd give to young kids.
In any case.
It was quite the experience to help her.
Because she was rather indecisive on what she actually wanted to get for her son.
A big fish tank for the angelfish he wanted.
A small bowl?
A small fish tank?
Her decision would also change with each new bit of info I'd provide.
Because what she'd want to put in the bowl/tank/etc would prompt me to give more info.
Like putting live plants in a bowl isn't a good idea because they don't handle the constant water changes well.
She must have changed her mind a half dozen times.
Thankfully she finally settled on a BettaFalls tri tank. That could hold a betta in each mini tank, provide flowing water to prevent water changes, and that would allow her to have her live plants. Because she super wanted those.
Hopefully it all works out for her. :)
