K as in….

Have you ever tried to explain the letter K to a grown man at 4:30 in the morning? There are only so many ways to explain a letter to someone who doesn’t understand.

It could have been because it’s so early in the morning that it just didn’t register in his brain. That’s the case for many people. Maybe it was because English wasn’t his natural language (he had a very thick Italian accent). But let me tell you, there are only so many ways!

I used the old “K as in Katrina. K as in Kite. K as in kill me now” that people do. The customer was still confused. So then i decided to tell him it was ten rows down (10 since we start the rows off with B and not A) and that didn’t work. It was a 5 minute conversation that held up my meet and greet line for work before he finally just pulled away.

I assume he figured it out.
