I can’t be sure about this, because it would be mind-blowingly stupid, but I think I just saw this at TJ Maxx today…

There was an older woman at the counter checking us out and a young girl next to her taking the size labels off the hangers and putting them into little bins.

The girl had a whole stack of hangers with blue “medium” labels on them, meaning they were little Ms. She was taking them off the hangers right-side up so the M looked like an M and not like a W.

She got to one that was upside down and turned to the older woman to ask, “Do the Ws go in here too?”

The older woman stopped in her tracks at the immeasurable stupidity of her young co-worker and then nodded, “Yes, the Ws.” Before finishing up with us.

Could it be real? Is there really someone so dumb that they can’t tell that a blue M label is still a blue M label when it’s upside down?
