A customer walked in yesterday to buy a soda. I told him it was $2, and he said, “Man, 20 years ago it was 50 cents.” I didn’t say anything, but noticed where he worked from his shirt. Today, I went to the Ford dealership, and there he was as a sales rep. I asked him about a Ford F-150, and he excitedly told me about all its features. Then I asked, “How much?” He replied, “$46,000.” I said, “Man, it used to be $18,000 20 years ago.”
He didn’t like that as much.
Funny how times change, huh?
