Don't mention the 'C' word
I was in the meat Dept when a customer asked me if I could cut a rib roast in half.
The roasts were too large for 2 people.
When I presented her with a couple of roasts from a rib section, she asked me what one was the best.
I explained to her that they were all equally good, coming from the same animal.
I continued to explain that the food they eat, the conditions they live in, the age and general health of the animal, as well as the breed affect the cut quality.
She listened clearly, and was only upset at the end of my talk when I said the word, 'cow'.
Her hand went up to her mouth and she said she would have to leave the area if I said the word , 'cow'.
Somehow, we could discuss everything in the abstract about the meat she was purchasing, however once the word, 'cow' was mentioned, the reality that the meat was attached to a living animal became suddenly to much for her.
I must make sure not to use the 'C' word. Another 'C' word in my daily vocabulary removed.
Crap.
