  • Traitors!

    Ever witnessed this?

    As with many of my tales of stupidity, this occurs at 7/11. ( Why is it always 7/11? ). There are 7, yes, *7*....whats the term I seek? 100% "designer" cloths, expensive cell phones, loud, inconsiderate, rude, took daddy's keys to drive to the store? I don't know what the classification is for this particularly type of person so I shall simply do with Yuppy Spawn. Anyway, there are 7 of them in the store. 4 of them are in line at the counter ( Saving spots for the other 3 <twitch> while the other 3 molest random items in the store. I don't know why but apparently the exact crunchiness of one type of Doritos vs another is very important and can only be ascertained by squishing both bags in either hand to see which reduces to crumbs first.

    They range from 16 to 20. One's pregnant. The youngest looking one of course. But being 6 months along is in no way impairing her ability to go out and party with the rest of her Yuplet friends. Despite this she's still attempting to wear her skin tight "sexy" designer labels + thong. The effect is unpleasant. She's also carting around a $300 digital camera which she is using to take pictures at random in the store.

    Why am I painting such a vivid picture, you ask? Because its imperative for the full effect of what occurred next.

    They're all paying for their stuff ( With the other 3 randomly cutting back into line to add more stuff to their respective piles ) when Yuplet #2 ( The 2nd in command by the looks of things ) professes he does not have enough cash for his large bag of Doritos + Coke. $200 worth of designer cloths on him. $100 sneakers. $200 cell phone in hand. Keys to daddy's BMW outside. Apparently does not have enough money for a bag of Doritos. Right-O.

    What does he do you ask? Ask one of his *6* friends for $2 to cover his Doritos? No, no, of course not. That would be logical. Instead he turns back to the clerk and goes:

    "Can I just take it then come back and pay for this stuff tomorrow?"

    I think my face twitched at this point as I did little to hide my abject disgust. I shook my head and looked at the clerk waiting for the entertainment to begin when she replied....but.....

    "Oh sure, no problem! <big giggly smile>"

    ?!!? WHAT?!

    TRAITOR!~!~#

    You seriously think these little yuppy shitlings don't have $2 between all 7 of them?! The sum total of all their cloths alone is more then your yearly income! Let alone you think that they're going to come BACK? WTF?

    I desperately look around for the manager, but he's restocking the cooler and didn't overhear it. The other clerk is just sort of blinking. So the yuppy pack walks out with their unpaid for stuff, piles back into daddy's BMW and drives off.

    <twitch> I really had to work to not say something to the clerk let alone death glare her. ><

      You are correct, GK, the most commonly recognized term for this type of trogdolyte is indeed yuppie spawn.

      "Yuplets' is definitely a nice touch, though.
      Because as we all know, on the Internet all men are men, all women are men and all children are FBI agents.

        My sister-in-law uses the term "Snippets" but i like Yuplets and Yuppie Spawn just as well.

        Maybe the clerk was a friend of theirs or goes to their school? Or she probably has a crush on the guy. Still made me cringe when said it was ok to take without paying... it could cost her her job if she does this on a regular basis.
        I don't think so, the clerk was easily twice his age. That would be.....creepy. ><

          Doesn't mean a crush isn't possible. Although, I thought the register jockey was male, by your scenery... So... it's a gay crush?

              You know, with this and one of your other stories you posted about the guy who told the lone clerk in the store he had already paid for his beer as he went out the door, perhaps paying for your items is optional at 7/11. Maybe they operate on some kind of honor system.

              "Yuplets" is an awesome term btw.

                Could the clerk have known them? I've let some of my locals do that but I have to be careful because they will take advantage.

                  Oh, damn. Now they'll expect that kind of thing to happen wherever they go. They'll get pissed off when they don't get their way.

                  Way to go, 7/11 clerk!! :hisses:

                    Now, I will admit I have let people take a couple of items and pay me later...but they've all been regular customers who come in the store almost daily, and I know them all personally, and I know they will come back. Not people like those. Those people would just be SOL, there is no way I'd let them walk out of there with ANYTHING, because you're right, they most likely would never be back.

                          Don't Yuppie Spawn usually have some form of credit card on them?

                              too difficult backstabbing when dual-weilding. Unless GK was able to get to a flanking position, and none of the yuplets was a rogue within 3 levels, it just doesn't work. Nah, I prefer the raging barbarian that leaves them splattered all over the hot dog display.
