The Other Other Woman
(A couple, about mid-30s, comes up to the counter. The man has an account, but no card or ID on him. Her name is apparently on the account, though. Asking for his name, I pull up his account. As she’s fishing in her purse for ID, I look at his account. There are two women’s names on the account.)
Me: “Ah, so you must be [first female's first name]?”
(Suddenly, the wife fires off a hateful look at her husband.)
Wife, to husband: “I thought you took your ex-wife’s name off the account!”
Me: “Oh geez, I’m sorry. He probably just added you, not realizing her name was still on there. You must be [second female's first name].”
(She gives me an ice cold stare.)
Wife: “NO, I’M NOT!” *storms out*
Him: “Well, guess these are for me, then.” *rents the movies and leaves, blushing redder than an apple*
