(A customer is looking for a heat lamp for her lizards’ terrarium.)

Me: “Yes, we have them, both in red and clear.”

Customer: “Perfect, I love you!”

Me: “Oh, uh, thanks?”

(Later, she comes back to get the replacement bulb.)

Customer: “Sorry about saying ‘I love you’ earlier.”

Me: “Don’t worry about it, always nice to feel loved.” *hands her bulb and walk her to register*

Customer: “Great, now my geckos will love you too!”

Me: “Yay!”
