  • Choke on the Stupid

    Oh gawd. So much stupidity.

    "Can I see your I.D.?"

    Responses Received:
    - "Oh it's in the car...........wait...do I really need it?"
    - "I don't have it. ...uh...Newport 100s?"
    - "Really? Uh...I'm 19."

    Let's Play a Game

    It's called "how many people." The number of registers is constant. 3. The number of people can change. The people are assigned to registers. You have to guess what registers they're using. Are they the ones that they're standing at? Or are they the ones that are obviously vacant?

    Well about 50% of our customers were absolutely sure that "vacant" was the correct answer today. Congratulations all, you're dumb as shit.

    Dafuq did you just say to me?

    I'm out refilling the paper towels at the pumps and some guy is out there. Here is the conversation:

    SC: Oh, I didn't even realize there were paper towels at the pumps. Wow.
    Me: Yeahhhh...*awkward*
    SC: Oh, haha, because this one is empty. Somebody hasn't been doing their job.
    Me: That would have been... *thinking about when the last refill should have been*
    SC: You.
    Me: ...........actually second shift yesterday.

    The magical back room.

    SC: Can I have a carton of __________ cigars?
    CW: I don't have cartons but I have ___ packs.
    SC: No I want a carton.
    CW: I just order enough to fill the shelves so I don't have any cartons. Would you like some anyway?
    SC: No no no. Is there some in the back room?
    CW: Pardon sir?
    SC: The back room. Is there a carton in your back room?
    CW: ...no. There's nothing in my back room, sir.
    SC: ...oh...hmmf.

    Change...

    Me: And here's 47.59 as your change.
    SC: You give the right change?
    Me: ...47........59.....?
    SC: Close enough.

    What...the...what? That's your change. That's all of it. That's the be-all end-all of your change. That is it. Down to the very last penny. What was I supposed to say to that question? "Yes, sir, I didn't steal from you." What? WHAT? Of course I gave you the correct change. You WATCHED ME DO IT. AGH.

    Food.

    SC: Can they warm this pretzel up for me over there? *motions toward deli*
    Me: I dunno. You can order one on the kiosk warmed.
    SC: I don't have time for that. *meanders on over to the deli with the pretzel*

    The deli sup comes over and gives me a talking to because that stupid woman told her that I told her that she could get her damn pretzel warmed up. Apparently she can't but I never even told her that she could. I even told my deli sup that I had told her she could order one but apparently I don't speak english because I was ignored. >:[ What the hell? Why are customers lying sacks of poo sometimes? The funny thing was that it would have just been quicker for her to order the pretzel...

    Paranoia

    Called out to a pump with the color of the car at night. They noticed that I had actually taken note of their car's color and they drove away without pumping. Score one for me.

    Is there any way he doesn't have a full grasp on our money? I had a boy at work today give me 3 dimes to pay the $0.28 in his transaction. When I gave him 2 pennies back, he was confused and told me I owed him a quarter in change. Still not sure how he came to that conclusion.

      This makes me sad for the state of our schools.
      When you start at zero, everything's progress.

        To be fair I work in an airport, so it's very likely he wasn't from the U.S. He spoke English well enough to ask me how much each coin represented, but I don't think he quite had a grasp on our money. I'm simply glad he didn't fight me on it, because I really don't want to get into a debate on whether I gave correct change.
