Re: Geez! I hate that!

Went to Bunnings yesterday to get my usual fix. Started the day early and didn't have time for a coffee. Pay at the trade counter and confirm with the guy that there is a cafe at the other end of the store. "There is, but you can grab a free coffee right there (points to the setup next to the trade desk)". Sweet I thought - I never say no to free stuff. Plus, my car was parked in the yard as I needed to load it and then pay so I didn't need to move the car out then park again. Then he continued...
"To get the hot water you just flick the lever back". I thought he was referring to one of those under mount zip boilers. I walk to the sink and look for it - confused.
I then asked him what lever? - and he replied the tap mixer lever - as in, use the mains hot water from the mixer (as if I had never seen one before).
I politely declined his offer (wonder what would have been the reply had I asked for milk?) and drove out than parked at the other end where the cafe was.
Go in, and the cafe was closed, although it was meant to open at 8am and it was already 9.
Oh well....
