This morning when I woke up my kids were being hard work and everything was running behind, this meant I didn’t have time to pack a lunch and only just got them out of the door to get them to School on time. Now I love my family but day to day family life and approaching 40 can wear you down sometimes.

Because of this I had to nip out of work at lunchtime to pick something up. Things are expensive at the minute so I went to my local Tesco’s to pick up a Sandwich and a fruit pot. I know, the excitement never ends.

Anyway this is where I fucked up. So as I place my dreary Sandwich and fruit down on the counter the handsome young shop assistant smiled and asked ‘Would you like to go for a drink?’

I politely told him that while I was flattered I’m happily married and so I couldn’t but I must admit my ego was boosted and this had cheered up my mediocre day. Well it did until he said ‘No, sorry, I meant for the meal deal.’

Tldr: I thought the shop assistant was asking me to go out for a drink but he was asking if I wanted to get a drink to get a meal deal and make my purchase cheaper.
