So we got a new girl in. She's not from here, matter of fact she's from the other side of the planet, from a country I've never heard of.
However, she can speak and understand a fair amount of english.
Naturally the SC rip into her as much as possible. But back off completly when they realized that I'm there still, and can call any of their BS.
Example:
Guy comes in staggering, talking loopy, and is so drunk off his ass it aint funny. I tell her that its illegal to sell to him at this stage. I also tell her I'll deal with him. He comes slopping up, slamming a six pack of beer, and lets out a loud belch. I put the beer on the counter and tell him no beer. He growls, but leaves. Moments later he comes back, and claims he bought a pack of smokes from her earlier, and she forgot to give it to him. (Bunch of BS, but ask for the recipt to humor him).
He hands me a recipt. From Winco. Last Week. Much laughter on my half. He still demands his smokes. He finally leaves when he realized that Plaidman is too average in brains to fall for his stupid tricks.
Example 2:
Man buys lottery, smokes. Pays with twenty. (I'm right there, helping her pack). She gives him .40 cents. (Which is correct BTW). He demands loudly that sweettoots needs to give him the rest of his change. I tell him she did. He screams loudly he give her a twenty. I hold up his lottery. "12 dollars for lottery". I hold up his two packs of smokes. "7.60 for smokes. Thats 19.60".
He growls and mumbers, and rips his bag out of my hand and storms out.
(This is the same guy who demanded that I never let <race> cut in front of him again, even though he was the one that left the line, and never said a word as I rang up the dude up that was behind him. Til he left. Then he said those choice words).
Example 3:
Guy demands restroom. I tell her that restrooms are for police and us only. Guy gets mad. Leaves. Comes back later, knocks on our window, and smears it with ... well you know.
Those were the worst ones. I still had the ususal cries of I'm always here, never card me again bitch, learn to speak english, go back home, blah blah scumbags of the universe.
Then I had a few ones that were surprisenly nice and patient, even though normally they're cranky and jerkasses. Made me think of them somewhat differently.
