something to read about

I walked into the supermarket near the Flushing house. There was a 14 year old Spanish (I think) boy arguing with the old Korean shopkeeper. How do I know he's 14? hahah u'll see...

Anyway, he wanted to buy a few items and he was short of 10 cents. The boy said, "C'mon. It's only 10 cents!" And the shopkeeper said, "No! No money no business!" hahaha. Then the boy said, "Y'know I don't even know whacha talking about!(The Korean old man did have quite a strong Korean accent). What business?! I don't own a business! I'm only 14 years old!" hahahahaha! And they kept yakking on until I finally said, "Don't worry, I'll give you the 10 cents."

I guess the boy felt kinda embarrassed. Didn't dare look me in the eye. but he said thank you and took it and rolled his eyes back at the shopkeeper saying, "Well... He just wouldn't give me a 10 cents discount!"

hahhaha. aiyoo.. that old man... abit of a stick in the mud.
