Ain’t Got A Cowlick Of Sense

(I work as a cashier at a local grocery store. I often work with a bagger who seems a little slow. One day, my supervisor asks me a question concerning his new ‘haircut.’)

Supervisor: “Have you noticed [coworker] today?”

Me: “No. Why?”

Supervisor: “Just take a look next time you get the chance.”

(I look at my coworker and notice he has a giant, obvious bald spot that was not there the day before. My supervisor and me argue whether or not to ask him, as the bagger is often temperamental.)

Me: “You should ask him since he’s more friendly with you.”

Supervisor: *nervously* “Well… okay.”

(A couple of hours later, my supervisor comes back with an answer.)

Supervisor: “You’ll never believe what he told me.”

Me: “What?”

Supervisor: “He said he was having trouble with a cowlick on the back of his hair, so he just shaved a big bald spot on the back of his head!”
