"Welcome to Tim Hortons. Can I take your order?"
"Yes. Can I get a large double-double and a large tea with milk. Oh! And a Boston Cream donut."

Is Halifax the new Toronto?
One of my biggest pet peeves and will make me instantly dislike a person, is when someone talks to me like I'm stupid.
Conversation between me and a visiting co-worker from Halifax.
Her - "Have you tried out the new printer?"
Me - "Yes, it's great! But I mostly use it for labels"
Her - "Color labels?"
Me - "No, just black labels..."
Her - "You know those ink cartridges are really expensive, right?"
Whhhhaaaaaaaattt?? Ink. Is. Expensive???? This is where I smile and nod.
Yes, I realize ink is expensive. Do you realize how little ink is involved in printing labels? And would it really make a difference to you if the labels were in color?
Idiot...
