So, here I am at the corner store, standing (in my froggy PJ pants with a tshirt that says "I used to care but now I take a pill for that") at the only open checkout with my two tubs of ice cream, a large thing of honey, and a carton of SILK... and the woman in front of me hands over a stack of 50+ coupons to the poor cashier.
Coupons have to be scanned individually.
I'm not in a hurry, and the guy behind me isn't in a hurry... we kind of chuckle at each other. But the poor frazzled woman behind the register is not having a good day. I look at her and smile sympathetically as the SC starts bitching because it's taking too long to scan the coupons.... "Why is this taking so long?" "Can't you do this any faster?" while the cashier just repeats "Each coupon has to be scanned."
"Well, can't you just take my word for it?" She looks back at me. "Isn't this taking too long?"
I just raise my eyebrows and say calmly, "Yes it is, but that's not the fault of the cashier, is it?"
Catbuttface in response while the cashier bites her lips, probably trying to keep from laughing. Luckily, Coupon-Lady leaves with her $260 worth of groceries and I manage to escape before my ice cream melts completely... and the cashier compliments me on my choice of attire too!
