Yes, it's that time again.
(Wakko: No! Not the Wheel of Morality!)
(Pay attention to how many different cards she uses on me.)
Had a woman come through my line, whilst I was alone on register, and hand me two skeins of yarn. She tells me, "Hold on, I have a coupon."
Like it's some life or death thing.
I scan the first skein, and say, as she's digging through her purse for the coupon, "It doesn't matter, these're on sale, I can't use the coupon."
She explodes. "Then I don't want them. I wasted all my gas to get here, and the coupon is a better deal, and you can't use the coupon?!"
I step back and put up my hands. "Ma'am, I don't control it, I just enforce it. Yelling at me will get you nowhere."
C (Customer): "No, but you can pass it on to your boss. I'll just buy my yarn at WalMart from now on."
See you next week.
C: "I wasn't even buying this yarn for myself, either, I was buying it to make blankets for my church."
Yeah, play off my religious side... not gonna do you any good.
C: "You tell your boss your coupons suck. It was the only reason I came in to buy from you, I'll just go to WalMart for my yarn, and you made me waste my gas!"
Let me see here:
Gas card (twice)
Religion card
Your boss card
Yes ma'am, let me break the rules just for you.
