Eyes Glued

Yesterday we went to buy Abi a new pair of football boots. As we arrived, a sales assistant was standing at their counter, hunched over her phone. We stood there for a couple of minutes discussing this and that. The assistant didn’t move.

Mrs W asked the assistant something and she slowly turned around, still tapping away in her phone. Mrs W asked again … tap, tap, tap.

I said, OK, let’s go somewhere else and we left.

In a similar situation, years, ago, I left that shop and never went back.
