Don’t Park, Don’t Park So, Don’t Park So Close To Me

I work at a grocery store, but every now and then we receive special non-food products to attract new customers. A few weeks ago, a cheap treadmill was on sale, which is, of course, very heavy. A customer came to my manager and me.

Customer: “I’d like to purchase one of the treadmills that’s on sale, but I’ll require assistance getting it into my van.”

We agreed and then checked him out.

Manager: “Can you please pull your van up to the front?”

Well, the gentleman did a bit more than that… or maybe he took it too literally. He backed up his car so close to the entrance/exit doors that he was about a foot from hitting them and was completely blocking traffic in both directions with his van.

He proceeded to open his trunk, and my manager flipped out.

Manager: “Sir, YOU CAN’T DO THAT!”

All the while, the man was standing there with his trunk open, raising his arms like, “Hurry up!”

It was crazy, but honestly? It was hilarious in a way!
