ONE OF THE ORIGINAL FUCKS
STORY NUMBER ONE

I was stocking some cereals out from the back, and this lady walks up in her walker thing.

Her: *points to the Special K cereal*
"How much is this one?"

Me: *looks at price*
4.99

Her: *points at the box next to it*
"This one looks different!"

Me:"Uh, yea... That one is "Fruit and Yogurt" flavored"

Her: "What?"

Me: "That one is fruit and yogurt flavored"

Her: "Oh, how much is it?"

Me: *looks at price sticker just below it*
"5.49"

Her: *looks over to the right a bit more*
"And what is this one?"

Me: "That one is vanilla almond flavor"

Her: "What?"

Me: "Vanilla Almond"

Her: "And how much is it?"

Me: "...5.49"

Her: *Oh I think I'll have to try this one"

Me: "Alright then"
*turns around and continues putting boxes on shelf*

Her: "Oh what is this one?"

Me: *turns around*
"That one has berries in it."

Her: "What?"

Me: "Berries. It has them in it."

Her: "How much is it?"

Me: *looks*
"That one is 5.99" (It's a bigger box)

Her: "Oh"
*points to vanilla ones*
"How much is that one, again?"

Me: "5.49"

Her: *points to Fruit/Yogurt*
"and that one?"

Me: "5.49"

Her: *points at berry ones*
"And that one?"

Me: "...5.99"

Her: "And are they all the same price?"

Me: "Yes." (by this point I'm incredibly frustrated and do not feeling like having her point at each one in turn and ask what flavor/price they are again.)

Her: "Ok thank you"
*picks up the regular flavor and walks away*




STORY NUMBER TWO

I was packing groceries, and the cashier was ringing through this old lady. She scanned a 4 liter bottle of Bleach and set it down of the counter for me to bag/put in the cart. We are supposed to ask the customer if they want big items with handles like that in bags.

Me: Would you like your bleach in a bag?
Customer: Oh... Uh, maybe.

AGAIN?
Last night I got lucky and was able to sell programs and leave early instead of having to do concession all night. It was a Bon Jovi concert and one girl pointed to a picture in the program and asked "Aren't they sexy"? I said completely seriously "Yes. VERY sexy".

Gah, the other day a customer recognized me at the grocery store: "Hey which aisle is (some item) located...hey why aren't you wearing your uniform!?"

"It's my day off."

*Comes back minutes later for me to help her more.*

But then again Ive been working at a grocery store for a while and that is not the worst of it.

I have a lot of stories from my store :P

The most interesting being when I asked a woman for her Date of Birth to put on her check, per company policy, and she went to customer service, got a manager, and accused me of copying down her information so I could break into her house and rape her.

She also said I made a sexual comment, which, as everyone knew, at the time, I didn't ever talk.

To anyone.

Just "Hi, did you find everything/may I have your card/have a nice day"

Tried to ge me fired <_<

She never came back.

Old people are great. I was working at this here hotel, and an old lady walks up to me and asks me "Where can I find this room?" and tells me it's room number 2xx.(The first number meaning the floor) So I tell her that its on the second floor, and she just looks at me in confusion. I explain that she just needs to walk up the short set of stairs right next to us and she will see her room from there.
15 minutes afterwards I go up to the third floor to get some stuffs, and I see her walking around aimlessly, at which point she explains that she's lost, so I get to escort her to the room. >_>

I caught some old lady in the cat room randomly letting cats out of their cages.
It could have been disastrous.

XD!

If, when I am old, I am senile and have no choice in acting that way, then fine. No big deal.

But even if I'm one of the non-senile people, you can bet I am going to act that way and mess with people. I deal with people all the time over the phone at my job and its so much fun when some old person calls and you can tell their intentionally messing with you trying to annoy...
