Hey people, first post. I've lurked for around a year, but after what happened today I had to register and share this. I'm a cashier at a certain southeastern supermarket, and really like my job and coworkers. On to my story. It's not much but it took me everything to not crack up in the customers face.
I was having a pretty horrible day, I was on 4 hours of sleep, and the past few days we've had 3 people call in every night. Needless to say I was in a crummy mood. It seemed every type of SC was thrown at me; overbearing old people, ocd fruit people, the ones who say the annoying phrases you've heard a million times (you know the ones...), coupon Nazis, etc. My nerves were at a boiling point, until this happened:
old guy: Yeah I'd like a newspaper.
IHT: ok sir, would you like a *Florida Newspaper?*
OG: do you have any Ohio papers??
IHT: ......
OG: ....well??
IHT: *trying not to laugh* no
OG: Oh okay. Florida's good.
...and yeah, that's my first story. Sorry if it wasn't exciting, it seemed a lot cooler when I was thinking about posting it.
