Obviously Can’t Hear A PIN Drop

(I am paying at the grocery store, and my cashier is busy flirting with the next cashier over. After she finishes ringing up my items, I tell her several times I’ll be paying by card before she finally acknowledges me.)

Cashier: “Credit or debit?”

Me: “Credit.”

Cashier: “Credit or debit?”

Me: “Credit.”

Cashier: “Credit or debit?”

Me: “CRED-IT.”

Cashier: “Okay, swipe.”

(I swipe, and am prompted to enter my pin. It takes a few minutes, but I finally get her attention.)

Me: “I said I was paying with credit.”

Cashier: “Swipe.”

Me: “I did, and it’s asking for my pin.”

Cashier: “So, enter your pin!”

Me: “I said I’m paying credit.”

Cashier: *snottily* “Well, why didn’t you just say that in the first place?”
