Showered With Irresponsibility

(A customer comes to my register with some jars of mayonnaise. And by ‘some,’ I mean a whole basketful.)

Me: “So… that’s quite a lot of mayonnaise you’re buying.”

Customer: “I know, but my daughter’s expecting.”

Me: “All of this is for your pregnant daughter?”

Customer: “Yep. She needs these, or I’m in a lot of trouble.”

Me: “Sir, I’m really sorry if it’s not my place to judge, but I don’t think you should give that much mayonnaise to your daughter. I understand that cravings can get out of control, but this much mayonnaise can’t possibly be good for her health.”

Customer: “No! It’s for her baby shower! She’s making deviled eggs!”

Me: “Oh! That makes more sense.”

(I should probably work on my conversation skills.)
