Pretty Woman – Or An Ugly Bloke In Overalls

August 14, 2007 by Brendon Sinclair Leave a Comment

I was talking to good friend of mine last week who told me his “Pretty Woman” story (the scene where she gets laughed out of the store).

My mate walked into a boot store that sells only Red Wing boots. Red Wing boots are very famous top quality boots that sell for about $300-400 Australian ($280-380 US).

Anyhow, he walked into the store dressed how he often is – in overalls or working man’s gear.

“…You do realise how much these boots cost?”

He was looking at the boots when the Sales Assistant came up to him with a look of disdain and said:

“Can I help you? You do realise how much these boots are, don’t you?”

The thing about my mate is that he’s a pretty knockabout sort of guy. Not a scholar by any means.

Looks a bit rough even. But he’s a lovely fellow who enjoys working at manual jobs.

And he’s worth about $5 million.

We all do make assumptions based on first impressions. We shouldn’t but we do.

Cheers
