چگونه نه بگوییم

این داستان با واسطه از استاد لطفی زاده بنیانگذار علم فازی به دست من رسیده. ایشان این داستان کوتاه را در خصوص فرهنگ هایی که در آن «نه» گفتن به خواسته طرف مقابل زشت محسوب می شود فرستاده است. بخوانید و لذت ببرید. خصوصا تقدیم می شود به سرور عظیم الشان تاکامی عزیز.

In some cultures it is impolite to respond with "No" to a request. Iranian culture is a case in point

  A few years ago, a father and his son came to the United States from Iran. They settled in Los Angeles and opened a pharmacy. A customer walked in and asked the son, who was at the counter, "Do you have smoked sturgeon?" The son was taken back by this question and told the customer "What are you talking about? This is not a fish market, it is a pharmacy. There is a fish market around the corner. Why don't you go there?" The customer then asked, "Do you have caviar?" The son became irritated and raising his voice said, "Don't you understand me. I repeat this is not a fish market, this is a pharmacy." At this point the father who was at the back of the store came over to the counter and told his son, "Let me take care of the customer." He asked, "What can I do for you?" The customer repeated his question about the smoked sturgeon. The father responded with "Of course. I will be pleased to provide it for you." The customer said, "I am very pleased to hear that. How about caviar?" The father said, "No problem. I can give you as much as you need." The customer was very pleased by this response. He told the father, "I need 4oz. of caviar. How much would it cost?" The father said, "Do you have a prescription?" :D
