the untold wisdom of tellers

Tellers at super markets have untold wisdom. The other day I had a Paulo Coelho moment when I was paying for my ice cream at a local garage. When i reached the front of the que the teller smiled a charming smile at me and I greeted him in kindness despite my awful mood. The he asked me something that threw me completely out of the water.

Him: "What must a man do when he loves you?"

Me (completely perplexed by this simple question: "I guess they should just be kind to me."

The man smiled and looked at me while shaking his head while he said:

"No, they should just tell you."
