I went to the grocery store to return a head of lettuce- after about 2
weeks of it being in my refridgerator.

I explained to the lady in the produce section that I had the head of
lettuce in my "crisper" and now the lettuce is wilted. She replied and
told me that I had to use the lettuce within a few days. I told her
that there were 2 problems with this story:

First, the "crisper" is supposed to make things CRISPER than they are,
right? So, I waited a couple of weeks and it looks like the lettuce
took a turn in the wrong direction. Perhaps the manufacturers of
refridgerators should call the freezer area the "WILTER" then- the
"crisper" would work as the opposite way than what the name of it is
(like the "Wilter" would do).

The lady then replied, "you'll have to take your "crisper" problems with
the refridgeration company."

I then said... "okay... fine... but, the second problem is that the head
of lettuce had no expiration date on it."

The lady then replied, "we have produce pricing strips right above our
produce with the weight, pricing, produce number, etc."

I then said, "oh... you mean the one-quarter inch strip that is
extremely hard to read even with reader glasses- that no one can see?"

The lady then replied, "you'll have to take your vision problems up with
your eye physician."

I then said, "so, may I speak with your manager? I would like to return
some spinach."
