Come again?

At the grocery store on base(commissary) you can either do self checkout, or have a personal bagger/grocery valet. The bagger has to take the groceries out to your car, and you are obligated to tip them (that's how they make their wages).

Baggers are also instructed to make small talk as they walk you to your car.

So the other day, I had a teenage guy handling my groceries. It started to rain as we were walking to my car. I stated, "Oh, good. now I have an excuse to not mow the lawn when I get home."

Then Mr. Man says, "Don't you have a husband or son that can do that for you?"

I know he was just making small talk, but there are just so many things wrong with that question...
