Question

Ramona and the store clerk are the two people in the story. THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY NO SECURITY
CAMERAS OR MIRRORS. Ramona came in and purchased her garlic tablets. However, on the way out she
asked him how much should one take. The clerk said to her that most women should weigh a 160 pounds,
however, she weighs a little less so she can take less. The little less bothered her so she asked him to clarify
what he thought she weighs and he said 130 pounds. She replied "you don't even know what I look like" and
he remarked that "I see you come in here" Telling her that he thought she weighted 130 upset her because
everyone always tells her that she looks like she weighs 110 or less. Also keep in mind that he wasn't facing
her when he said this and there was a partition blocking his view of her so all he saw was her face and neck.
When Ramona told her friends the story all of Ramona's friends said she should not be upset because when the
clerk made the comment she was standing behind a partition and all he could see was her neck and face and
Ramona was wearing a coat. MY QUESTION: Do you agree/concur with Ramona's friends that Ramona
should not be bent out of shape because the clerk could not see what she looked like due to the fact she was
standing behind the partition and all he could see was her neck and face and she was wearing a coat. KEEP IN
MIND THE FOLLOWING: (1) RAMONA WAS WEARING A COAT WHEN SHE CAME INTO THE
STORE THAT DAY (2) LATER ON WHEN THE CONVERSATION TOOK PLACE SHE WAS
STANDING BEHIND A PARTITION AND ALL THE CLERK COULD SEE WAS HER NECK AND
FACE (3) ALSO KEEP IN MIND EVERY ONE ALWAYS TELLS RAMONA SHE IS THIN/SKINNY
AND WEIGHS NO MORE THAN 110 POUNDS (4) THE CLERK ONLY SAW RAMONA A TOTAL OF
FIVE TIMES SPREAD OUT OVER THE YEAR AND EVERY TIME HE SAW HER SHE WAS
WEARING A COAT

Answer 1

I agree with you. She should not be upset because the clerk did not see her fully when he guessed her weight.
