I feel so bad. At several points in the day I was so bored that I just stood at the register and stared forlornly at people walking by the cafe. They only come up to the counter when I'm carrying something heavy or have a thermometer in my hand or have frozen food out on the counter or any other inconvenient time. So at the point of suck I had a stack of cardboard I was going to take to the recycling bin and was about to walk out when one of the mall girls came up. I immediately turned on my heel to find a place to set them and then put them on a table behind me. I kind of tossed them to save a step. I must've had some kind of annoyed look on my face because she said "I'm just here for cheese!" She didn't look mad, but she looked...caught in headlights, maybe? I don't know how to describe it. All I know is that my facial expression made it clear she was interrupting. I helped her and tried to be nicer and a bit cheerful because she didn't deserve my frustration at her simply walking up to the counter. But it didn't help. She looked offended while she paid and our goodbye was akward.
I am not good at hiding how I feel, especially when it happens so fast like that. I have a very expressive face. I just wish I didn't hurt people's feelings with it. *sigh*
