So, you're leaving tomorrow?

*chases after a woman who walked into the closed area after I told her we were closed.*

Me: I'm sorry Ma'm but the galleries are closed.

Woman: I know, you told me. *tries to walk around me*

Me: *steps in front of her* So you can't be in here.

Woman: But I leave town tomorrow so I'm going to look around.

Me: You can't. We're closed in here. There is construction happening.

Woman: But I leave tomorrow.

Me: I understand that but we are closed. You can't be in here.

Woman:....But I leave tomorrow.

Me: Please go.

Sometimes its best to play along.

Guest: Its pretty hot out there.

Me: Yeah. 'Tis the season.

Guest: And bright too.

Me: Yeah.

Guest: Its so bright people think you're closed because the sun makes your windows look dark. You should do something about the brightness outside.

Me:...Sure I'll get on that.
