A long time ago (in a galaxy...wait that is not right). Ok this isn't sucky, in fact it was fun, but it isn't exactly a praise either..so I am putting it here.
When I first started as a cashier in Wally World (feels like a lifetime ago), I was having a BAD day. It seemed like every SC in the world was out, and coming through my line (most of which I don't remember now). It was about the end of my shift, and I was at the end of my rope, because there was a huge line..which meant I was going nowhere until it was gone.
The older blond woman comes up, and is going to pay with a Credit Card. So she scans it, facing the wrong way, of course. I tell her "Turn it around." so she turns herself in a complete circle, and scans the card the exact same way. I tell her "No the card, turn it around." again..she turns around and scans the card the same way.
I am about to almost scream at her, when I notice the next time she did it, she winked at me. Suddenly it dawned on me that she was doing it on purpose, to get me to laugh. I laughed till I almost cried. Finally she winks at me, does the Credit Card right, and says. "Cheer up, life is way too short." All the other customers I couldn't even begin to describe them, but her I still remember. Anybody else have a nice or sweet customer come 'just when you needed it'?
