I had a pretty Interesting night tonight.
First off, A guy got hit by a car in the parking lot on his motorcycle, so this cause every person that came into the store to ask me the same questions over and over again for the next hour. -_- He was fine, it kind of just bumped him and he fell over.
Then I was outside taking trash out and there was a man walking down the sidewalk in front of the store Screaming and muttering at himself and waving his arms about the same way you would if there were a group of bees attacking you. No he was not on a blue tooth or anything like that either. O_O
Then as soon as my co-worker left and I was left alone, the customers came non stop for 2 hours, I couldn't leave the register at all, couldn't make the coffees or pick up after them. awful.
Then there was the kid at the frozen drink machine, you can't see it from the registers, but we have over head cameras that show the images on a tv screen above my register. He was back there throwing all the cups, lids, straws all over the floor. I told him to clean it up, he did, then he was 5 cents short for his purchase, usually i will let it slide and throw in the few cents someone needs, but not this kid. That was pretty satisfying.
About an hour later the phone rings, I answer with customary greeting.
SC: Guy on the phone
ME: Me
ME: Thank you for calling *my store* this is moogie, how can i help you?
SC: Gimme tonight's numbers will ya?!
ME: okay.... *reads off numbers*
SC: BLAAARGGGGHH! *click*
ME:
About an hour before I get to finally leave the store, which has been filled with customers for pretty much 3 or 4 hours, two guys walk in.
SC: Sucky Customer
ME: Me
SC: I need a pack of, uhhh, Marlboros... reds.
Me: Can I see your ID?
SC: I don't have it.
Me: Sorry, can't sell them to you.
SC: I have never been carded here, ever.
Me: Well, now you have.
SC: Everyone here knows me ( I really hate those words when they are put in a sentance together now) I live 4 houses down.
Me: Sorry, no ID no cigarettes.
SC: *turns to friend* Hey man, will you get em for me?
Me: Nope, cant do that either.
SC: You're going to make me go and get my ID?
Me: *duuuuuuuuh* Yes.
SC: When I come back you owe me an apology.
Me: hahahahaha
SC: seriously.
They leave and come back a few minutes later
SC: ..... Marlboro reds...
*throws ID on counter*
Me: Sure, That's 7.81 , do you need matches?
SC: are you new?
Me: yes.
SC: well, yeah I figured, you should apologized to me, I had to walk really far, and i'm drunk too.
Me: hahaha
(not gonna happen buddy, and besides, i thought you lived 4 houses down and that's one of the reasons I should know you so well.)
When my relief finally came in, i got out there as fast as I could. Something about the warmer weather brings out the stupidity in people a little more.
