    Young William was appointed sales person at a local General Dealer's store.
    While on one of his shifts, a lady approached him and asked if they had
    peach jam to which he bluntly replied, "Out of stock." At this, the Lady
    immediately turned to leave the shop in disgruntlement.

    It was then that the shopkeeper, who had been looking on, called William
    aside and told him, "When a customer asks for a product that is out of
    stock, you apologize for its unavailability, and then offer other types of
    the same product. For instance in this case it was peach jam; offer other
    types of jam like plum jam, guava jam and so on."

    Next, came in another lady who asked for toilet paper and William politely
    replied, "I am sorry ma'am, we do not have any toilet paper right now, but
    you could try carbon paper, manila paper or sand paper.

    emails come and go
