This isn't a suck, it was just funny. A mom comes in with an adorable two-ish-year-old girl who wants to order her own food and points at it in the lunch case. I wish I'd been closer because then I would have heard her name for the dumplings, which by the adults' reaction was hilarious. She also said 'Fank you!' very softly and sweetly whenever someone brought something to the table.
Anyways, she and mom share a combo with some noodles and dumplings and broccoli, and during a quiet moment in our tiny restaurant, the little girl toddles up to the counter where I'm standing by the cash and hands me a hundred dollar bill. I look up and her mom is sitting at her table about ten feet away, watching very closely. Yeah, I wanted to do stuff like that when I was that age, but we never paid for a $12 lunch with a $100 bill. Not sure if my parents would have let me hold one if I was out of arm's reach.
Anyways, when I recovered I think I said something like 'Are you treating mommy to lunch? That's nice of you.' And then I went to ask the boss if we could change a hundred.
That's the neighbourhood I work in, anyways. Everyone's got money and (gasp) manners. I've worked various retail jobs around here for six months and I think I can remember two SCs.
