I used to be working for a summer season at a Wal-Mart as a cashier. Nobody informed me that that is the weirdest place to have. You’re the one who interacts with the shoppers probably the most, and in consequence you get to listen to the weirdest sh**. Sooner or later, I used to be working an everyday, boring morning shift, and a person comes by means of my until with a bag of parrot meals. I mentioned good morning, and he grunts within the typical method a buyer does in the event that they don’t significantly wish to speak to me. So I simply scan the parrot meals, and it is available in (for a 4 pound bag) to be about 13 {dollars}. He appears very shocked, and I’m anticipating him to say one thing like “it mentioned on the signal it was solely…” however as a substitute he simply smiles at me (in a really creepy method) and that is how the next dialog went:
Man: Do you’ve a senior citizen low cost…?
Me: Sorry, sir, we don’t.
Man: YOU DIDN’T LET ME FINISH! Do you’ve a senior citizen low cost for parrots? I’ve a really outdated parrot.
Me: (stifling laughter) No, sir, I’m sorry. That’ll be 13 {dollars}.
(Then man then proceeds to achieve into his pocket and throw down a bunch of change and greenback payments. I stand there for a second, after which he glares at me, anticipating me to fish by means of all the cash myself. I accomplish that, wanting him out of the shop sooner relatively than later. He then stares on the remaining change on the conveyor belt.)
Me: Right here’s your receipt, sir.
(The person, ignoring me, begins to gather the change on the conveyor belt.)
Man: I can’t imagine you made me dump my pockets on right here.
(I wasn’t positive what to say or do, so I simply provided him his receipt once more.)
Man: (choosing up the bag, and smiling) Thanks. My life associate and I thanks.
(I’m fairly positive by life associate he meant his parrot, as a result of as he mentioned this, he pointed on the parrot on the bag. I by no means had one other buyer that scared me that a lot.)
