Unfiltered Story #128476

(I work in a very “gothic” like shop inside a theme park; as such I’m supposed to theme as semi-creepy. One day a guest comes up to buy something with his family – wife and three kids of varying ages.)

Me: “—and the total is [total].”

Customer: *while looking for payment inside wallet* “Can I give you an IOU? Pay you tomorrow, or Tuesday, next week maybe?”

Me: “I don’t think I can accept that, but I’ll consider a first-born sacrifice.”

(Without missing a beat, the man points to his oldest child.)

Customer: “You! over there!” *indicates my side of counter*
