  • Can't you just take my word for it?

    I was a Kroger buying ingrediants to make a pie. I only had an armful of items so I hopped in the express lane. The lineup went like this:
    1) Chub and Shorty
    2) Lady and the Tramp
    3) Moi
    4) Poor guy I almost punched

    Long story short, some guy stalked me through the parking lot of that same Kroger last year so now I get uneasy and tense when I go there. I don't want to go too off topic by telling the whole story though.

    The guy behind me was standing uncomfortably close and I was about to freak out and clock him when Shorty started screaming at the cashier.

    Shorty: Why did you ring up that mop for $10.99?!!
    Cashier: I'm sorry sir but that's how it rang up.
    Shorty: But it's on sale for $5!!!
    Cashier: The price sticker says $10.99.
    Shorty: I never look at the stickers because dumbass college kids put them on! I look at the sale signs put up by qualified managers!!
    Cashier: *scans it manually* It's still coming up as $10.99. Would you like me to go check the sign?
    Shorty: No! Because, unlike you, I care about the customers and don't want to make them wait!!
    Chub: Calm down....
    Shorty: Can't you just take my word for it?!!
    Cashier: No. If it turns out you're mistaken, I will get in trouble. Do you still want it?
    Shorty: No I don't want it!!! I'm not paying $6 more for it!!
    Cashier: Ok. *puts mop behind the counter* You need to pay for that though.
    Shorty: HUH?!!
    Chub: The scrub brush in your pocket.
    Shorty: Blaggleflaggle broggle!!! *slams the brush on the counter*

    He pays and grabs the mop as he turns to leave.

    Cashier: Are you going to pay for that?
    Shorty: No! I'm going to check that sign!!
    Cashier: Ok. *tracks Shorty to the door with his eyes*
    Shorty: *turns and meets his gaze* What?!! You don't trust me?!! Have more faith in people!!! *turns towards the isles*
    Lady: Wow! What a dumbass!
    Tramp: Totally! I didn't think he'd EVER shut up!

    He didn't come back while I was there. Thank God!!!

              EXACTLY!! Thank you!! "I know I JUST tried to steal a floor brush, but why don't you trust me to walk towards the doors with an un-paid for mop I was just whining about? I told you I wasn't gonna steal it"!

              Right.... Because ALLLL SC's tell the truth and stick to it We should fire all law enforcers and just make everyone promise to NEVER lie, steal, cheat, murder, speed, etc. It's the perfect solution!!
