Death Goes Shopping
(I am working behind the register on my first ever day of employment. It is also a particularly busy day. I am finalizing the purchase and handing the customer her bag…)
Me: “Thank you for shopping at [Store]; have a nice day!”
(The customer snaps her head up, gasping, while simultaneously dropping her bag of goods to the floor.)
Customer: “What did you say?”
Me: “I thanked you for shopping here, and told you to have a good d—”
Customer: “I know what you said! You told me to have a good DEATH!”
Me: “Ma’am, I can assure you that I did not say anything of the kind.”
Customer: “You DID! You DID and it’s YOU that should be dying, YOU B****! I can assure you that I’ll be taking this further!”
(There is an unimpressed looking customer next in line.)
Next Customer: “Lady, pick up your s*** and get out of here, or I’ll kill you myself.”
