Are you all right, there?
How the bloody hell are you supposed to answer this question?
They clearly don’t want to know how I actually am, and if you tell them, they don’t care or listen effectively.
If you say ‘yes’, they bugger off and serve someone else.
If you say ‘no’, they seem affronted YOU haven’t been clear about what you want to buy or ask..
If you say, “I’m rarely all ‘anything’ ”, they stare at you abjectly, unaware of the dripping sarcasm and wonder how you manage to dress yourself in the morning.
There are so many other things they can say that will easily and unambiguously communicate that they are ready to serve you... so why use such an abiguous abstract phrase as ‘are you all right, there’... No, Really I’m not, and it won’t be fixed by you taking money from me in exchange for this pair of furry slippers, but perhaps my feet will be more all right in their soft warmth and I can get back to my miserable existence, but thanks for asking about my well-being.
