Levi's and the taal

So I thought maybe I need a new pair of Jeans, and maybe the retail therapy will make me feel better.

And off to Edgars I go

Now if there is one thing that irks me is when people that are clearly afrikaans insists on speaking English. Badly

Sales Lady: Goot day, ken I help yoe?

Me : Hi Hello, I am looking for Levi's

Sales Lady: wot saiz is yoe lookings for

Me: Ons kan maar regtig Afrikaans praat

Sales Lady : ve got some new stok in yesterdays.

Sales Lady : excewes me plies. (holds one hell of a conversation with other sales person in afrikaans)

Me: Ek is opsoek na Levi's net gewone 501's asseblief

Sales Lady : " "

Me: (giving up) I are looking for a levi jeanpant
