Sometimes They Travel In Packs
(I had just arrived and was beginning my shift, when a teenage girl approached the counter.)
Customer: “Hi…do you guys sell bread?”
Me: “Yes we do, anything you’re looking for in particular?”
Customer: “Yeah…”
Me: “Which is?”
Customer: “White bread.”
Me: “We have several kinds of white bread, what kind would you like?”
Customer: “Oh…whatever.”
Me: *grabs the most expensive white bread* “Sliced?”
Customer: “Yep.”
Me: “Thick or thin?”
Customer: “Oh…thick.”
Me: *slices bread and rings everything up* “That’ll be $5.50.”
Customer: “Is it too late to get that thin-sliced?”
Me: “…I could get another loaf for you.”
Customer: “Oh…nah, I wouldn’t want to be a bother.”
Me: *hands her her change and her bread* “Have a nice day.”
(She leaves, and a clearly intoxicated man walks over to my co-worker.)
Man: “I LIKE YOUR BUNS!”
(He swears loudly and walks away.)
Co-worker: “It’s gonna be a long day.”
