  • Why don't you WALK DOWN THERE AND SEE ... ?

    Our front registers are close to one end of the store. You can stroll waaaay down the main aisle and see lots of other stuff before you get to the lumber department at the other end of the store.

    Mildly annoying customer today, stopping in front of my register with some items in her cart: "Are there any more clearance sales down there?" ... waving at the remainder of the aisle.

    Uh, lady, I just got here 10 minutes ago ...

    I said apologetically and honestly that I did not know.

    Hate to break it to you, lady, but I do not have every clearance special in the store memorized.

    Sarcasm dear, sarcasm. I’m well aware that dealing with civilians in any capacity will skin your faith in humanity alive, then pickle anything that remains so as to watch it shrivel up into an immortal husk thus reminding you of how dead inside you now are.

                It looks like I picked the wrong week to quit alcohol.

                        Fortunately, they are all references to the same thing: the 1980 (according to IMDB) movie Airplane!
                        If you're entertained by puns and sight gags, definitely check it out.

                          It reminds me of when someone would walk up to me at the fabric store and hold up a swatch or other item and say "do you have this color fabric?" Um, unless it was black or white, I'm going to have to go and physically look, if you hold up some specific shade of blue/green/pink I'm not going to be like "ah yes we have that EXACT shade!" And that's not even addressing the question of what type of fabric they want, quilters cotton, fleece, etc. I'm not made of magic, and if I was, I'd use the magic to win the lottery or something. And since I'm not, you'll have to follow me around while I look for that shade, and you'll have to actually help me because I have no idea how picky you are about the color.

                            Airplane! (1980) is tongue-in-cheek remake of the movie Zero Hour (1957). Descriptions include spoilers.

                            To truly appreciate all of the jokes in Airplane watch Zero Hour first.
