Spam Blocking

(I am a petite young woman who works in the meat department of my local grocery store. I get a lot of flak from friends (and strangers) about my job, and have become very prepared to deal with it. I am out to dinner with my boyfriend’s family. I have just finished telling a funny story about my job.)

Me: *explaining* “I work in the meat department at [store].”

Boyfriend’s Youngest Brother: “Oh, so you spend a lot of time working with meat, huh?”

(He gives me a creepy smile, looking pleased with himself.)

Me: “Oh yeah. I work the grinder. I also twist and cut the sausage.”

(He grimaced, crossed his legs, and didn’t speak to me for the rest of the evening. I got high fives from the rest of the family, because apparently, no one has ever shut him up like that.)
