I don't have an update on "Witch City/Cigarette City" Lady who walked out with 4 packs of cigarettes in distinct bright green packaging and probably won't because manager A didn't accost me with an "OMG RALERIN I HAVE AN UPDATE" as she normally does.
But I do have another check story for you.
No Checks Allowed
So a guy is doing an "Eastern Union" transfer and manager A is helping, it's his first time, he's sending money to Bumfuck, USA, yada yada yada. Guy whips out a checkbook and proceeds to write a check for the amount he's sending.
"Oh we don't accept checks for that."
"WHAT?!?"
"No one does, the grocery stores don't, we don't, no one does, there's no way for me to put it through, it's cash only."
"THIS IS BULLSHIT WHY DON'T YOU ACCEPT CHECKS OH MY GOD THE WORLD IS ENDING PUT IT THROUGH FOR ME NOW!!!!!!!"
"Not going to happen. You can get the money off your ATM card if you have it or else we can't help you."
"*storm away!!!*"
"But I Need The Long Ones!"
Had another old lady come up to me and beg me to hold some "Noise" incontinence pads for her until August 3rd when her check came in. I kept telling her I couldn't, I can only hold it until tomorrow. Got to listen to a 5 minute diatribe on how she could only get the long ones because they fit her shape and she only needs the long ones because they hold better. In the meantime, there's lines from here to Timbuktu and I gotta get behind the freaking register to help the new girl, C, NOW.
Bonus: "Eastern Union" Potential Scam?
I had another old lady creak up to me and ask me if I could help her with an "Eastern Union" in a few days so she could send money to someone. I tell her I can't, I'm not trained. However, my red flag alarms go off, especially since in the company LP newsrag there was a story of another elderly lady who was ripped off by sending money to a fake contest through "Eastern Union". I tried to ask her why and who she's sending money to but she creaked away before I could. So hrm.
