Trying To Blow Smoke
(I’m running the express lane when a lady approaches my till holding an infant of about a year old. Note: it’s October and around 68° outside.)
Me: “Hello! What can I do for you?”
Customer #1: *sets infant on counter * “Yes, I’d like two packs of [Brand] cigars.”
(I go get the cigars, and as I return and start ringing up her cigars, another customer walks by who also has an infant that is in only shorts, minding their own business.)
Customer #1: *to Customer #2’s infant* “Oooh, baby, you’re gonna get sick wearing only shorts. It’s, like, zero degrees outside.” *to me* “Some people.”
(She happily walked away with her cigars and baby.)
