WAY More Than I Wanted To Know.

[ralerin]

God, it must've been "tell Ralerin all your disgusting problems today!" at Aid of Rite.

First up! Lady wanted to buy 2 packs of fat burning pills and wanted us to order more.

"I need the fat burning pills because I went through a bladder cleansing one first and then I cleaned out my bowels with another".

Second place! The man who begged me for a toilet because "I really really have to pee."

Third but not least! The drunken guy who belched in my face and never apologized flashed me his awful, skinny body (including folds where his thighs met his torso) and a beer gut the shape of an emaciated kid's belly. I don;t think I've EVER seen this guy buy food, just beer upon beer upon beer.

Bonus: Same Shirt Different Day

Sweat Lady came in today, wearing the EXACT ripped, dirty, stained tshirt she wore Friday. I know she has a house with a roommate, why wasn't it washed? I wonder.

I'm sorry you had to deal with that. I don't know what makes people think anyone needs an explanation of bodily functions except their doctor.

My mom does x-rays and so has to ask every female patient between the ages of 12 and, like 70 if there's a chance that she is pregnant. It's a simple yes or no question. Yet many times she gets a full run-down of the whys, wherefores, and play-by-play of the woman's sex life. WHYYYYY!?

It's moments like these that I wish I could just stay inside my house and never come out in public.

I'm used to bring asked 'are you sure' or 'is there any chance you could be'.

In my case, I avoid the play-by-play, and just tell them I have an IUD. That gets them nodding and being cool - and also, if it's going to be an abdominal or anything like that, lets them know to expect to see the pretty belly-jewelry.

Similarly, if I ask for someone's phone number for the "Healthiness +" card, I get the full gamut from "Oh I don't have it with me" to "well my 1 year old daughter was playing with the only copy left and she pulled it off the ring and the dog ate it and it got stuck in his intestines and he had to go have surgery and in the meantime my husband turned up drunk and I screamed at him and called him a lazy good for nothing and he called me a bitch and threatened to sleep with the landlady again" and on and on...

and the dog ate it and it got stuck in his intestines and he had to go have surgery

and they didn't threaten to sue?

If you were her roommate, would you wash it? Touch it? Go anywhere near it? Ewww! Then again, you'd never be that gross person's roommate, but still.

Exactly what I was thinking. I have a roommate, too, but we don't do each other's laundry (except dish/hand towels, bathmat, etc. that we share...one of us will toss them into the laundry basket whenever necessary - usually just whichever one of us grabs them first). We're at about the same level of cleanliness (cluttered but not dirty) so it works out.

I tend to give them "No, I've done several home tests" or "No, we've used contraception."

Oh jeez. We have to ask every customer if they're on our coupon mailing list. All they have to say is "yes" or "no" but they don't. They'll either spin an endless yarn about how they were on our mailing list X years ago, but stopped sewing, and now they've got twenty new grandbabies so they're starting again, etc. etc. Or they'll get all irate and claim that they've signed up X times, but haven't received anything yet. Or they live in BFE and can't get mail. Honestly, I don't care! I don't even care if you're on the mailing list, I wouldn't even ask if Corporate didn't make us!

See, that they believe. But "No, I'm a virgin" and I get the third degree.
