Unfiltered Story #219153

I cashier at a high end grocery store in an affluent part of the state. I have been there over three years and am a familiar face to many regular customers. One women has been coming in a few times a month or so and sometimes comes to my register. She is extremely obese and as long as I have known her she has been working to lose weight. She told me recently that she had lost over 100 pounds and continues to follow what ever regimen she’s on. I was sincerely happy for her as I know it’s been a journey. My words were ” you look fantastic! Keep up the good work!” She later returned to my register and yelled at me for what I said. Apparently I implied that she was still fat and needed to lose more weight! ( In my head -at least another 100lbs lady. ) I was rather hurt, as I take my job seriously and would never be disrespectful to a customer. Can’t win sometimes!
