My daughter called yesterday to tell me this story: She asked the lady who was working in a newly re-installed Wal-Mart fabric department to help her find bobbins for her Singer sewing machine. The lady asked, "What is a bobbin?" After my daughter explained what a bobbin is, the lady said,"Oh, is it one of those round silvery things?"
I had a similar thing happen to me at a JoAnn store. I asked where the sequins were and the girl said, "We don't sell games here." She thought I was talking about Sequence. When I tried to explain what sequins are (small, round sparkly things that you sew or glue on clothes or decorations), she had to call and ask someone. She had never heard of them. Is that possible?
