Suggestive...

I'm looking for employees.

When one is looking for employees, one puts up a sign.

Do they not?

Anyway, I had an "Employment Opportunities Available" sign up in my window.

I guess my mistake was that I had put it on a stand, right in front of a mannequin.

Stay with me here, there's a punchline.

Last Saturday, as we're all working as usual, a woman and her husband walked by the store about three times.

I saw them look into the store each time they strolled by.

Assuming that they were making the mall laps like the rest of the people there that day, I thought nothing of it.

Until the last lap.

When they stopped in front of the window.

Pointing and laughing.

She finally comes in with hubby firmly in hand.

The following conversation ensued:

Me: "Hi there, how are you today?"

Her: "Hi, fine thanks."

Me: "Anything that I can help you with?"

Her: "Um, well, I noticed your sign in the window."

Me: "Great, are you looking?"

Her: "No. Don't you think that's kind of suggestive?"

Me: "Uhh, pardon me?"

Her: "The sign? Don't you think it's kind of suggestive??"

Me: "I'm not sure I follow. We're presently looking for employees so we put a sign in the window."

Her: "Well, it's right under a mannequin that's only wearing a bra and panty set."

Me: "I'm sure that when people see the sign, they know that we're not hiring for a mannequin or a bra model."

Her: "Well, I still think that it's rather suggestive. I think you should remove it."

Me: "I'm sorry you feel that way ma'am, but I'm sure that the people that are coming in to apply for a job are not in any way thinking that we're hiring for an armless, legless torso."

Her: ...

They both turned on their heels and left the store.

Was this a test of somekind?

Did I fail?
