She looks at us, her face filled with doubt; you can see that this is a deal breaker. Of course, the first time I had that experience, I said, “It’s all right, it’s just this one person, send her away and get me a new one.” Then the second customer comes in and says the same thing. Then the third customer comes in, and it’s the same thing. You start to see patterns, and no matter how stubborn you are, there’s obviously something wrong.
