Consumerics




At Singapore in a clothing shop:


Shop Owner: Excuse me Madam, please don’t try on the clothes here, go to the changing room!!!
Indian lady: Teek hai! Teek hai!
Shop Owners Wife: Madam, Madam, please don’t try on that lipstick, use the trial pack please!!!
Another Indian lady: Ok, ok fine, give it to me!!!
Shop Owners Daughter: Sir, Sir, please don’t remove the comb from the cover to comb your hair!
Indian man (shrugs): Ok!
Shop Owner (In Chinese): #@&^%$#&amp Indians;!!! 

Half an hour later the Shop Owner, Wife and Daughter have their hair standing on ends, are taking generous swigs of antacid and looking flustered, not necessarily in that order. They are also panting due to the combined effort of after running around the shop after various Indian customers.

One hour later:

Indian lady walks to the cash counter with 10 tops, 5 pairs of shoes, cosmetics and perfumes.
Other Indian lady buys  5 tee shirts, 8 pants, 3 dozen underwear and  3 bottles of cologne.
Indian man shoves his shopping bag of some half a dozen pants, shirts, socks, handkerchiefs, ties, and other sundry items onto the billing counter. And so do others.

Shop Owner (in English): We luvvvv Indians!! Such nice people...
