Sure Thing, Sweet Cheeks
(We have international newspapers that we keep behind us at the till. Also, I’m female. I’ve just finished ringing up some British newspapers for a customer.)
Me: “Have a brilliant day.”
Customer: “Can I take a look at your rack?”
(This not only catches me off guard, but all the staff and customers within earshot, who turn and look at us.)
Me: “Pardon?”
Customer: “I just want to see what else you’ve got to offer.”
(Everybody is still staring.)
Customer: *realizing what he’s said* “Oh! Your newspaper rack.”
