Handout 2

Coffee Shop Sharing

Characters:

Scene: We are in line at a coffee shop. Customer One is buying a coffee. Customer Two is with a child who picked out a chocolate milk and set in on the counter while Customer One was still paying.

Customer One: I'll have a large coffee, please.

Child: (speaking to his/her parent) I'd like this bottle of chocolate milk.

Cashier: (speaking to Customer One) That is $4 please.

Customer One: (handing the money) Here is $5. Please keep the change.

Cashier: Thank you.

Customer One steps aside to wait for coffee while Customer One steps up.

Cashier: Hello. What would you like today?

Customer Two: I would like a medium coffee and this chocolate milk for my son (daughter).

Cashier: Oh, I thought the child was with this other customer. I charged him/her for the chocolate milk. (Cashier turns to Customer One) Excuse me, I owe you some money back for this chocolate milk.

Customer One: (speaking to Customer Two) That's okay. I'll pay for it.

Customer Two: Please, let me give you the money for the chocolate milk.

Customer One: No, you just do the same thing for someone else when you get the chance.

Customer Two: Thank you so much. You are very kind. I will do that.

Customer One: Have a nice day.

Customer Two: Thank you. You have a nice day, too.

Child: Thank you.
