How Most Kids Get Started In Retail…
(I work in a very “gothic” 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 – his 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, or 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*
