Unobservant About The Unmentionables
(It’s my first day at work, and I’m putting away packages of little girls’ underwear. I don’t know the section, so I walk around for several minutes, holding the packages of underwear, trying to figure out where they go. A customer walks up with two of her kids in tow.)
Customer: “What the h*** are you doing?”
Me: “What?”
Customer: “I can’t believe this! You’re disgusting. This is a public place, you pervert!”
Me: “Uh, miss–”
Customer: *jabs me in the chest with a finger* “You’re a filthy pervert! This is appalling! People can see you, you know!*
Me: “Ma’am, I work here.”
(I point to the logo on my shirt and my lanyard with my name tag on it.)
Customer: “Oh. My. God. I am so sorry!” *runs out of the store with her kids*
