  • Doors are clearly not your friend

    This was from when I worked at Walgreen's on main cash 3 to 11 M-F.

    Our store has a glass foyer entrance set in a corner. Two sets of sliding glass doors, one on each side of the corner, lead into the small foyer and a glass wall with another single set of glass doors lead into the store. Basically no matter which door you enter from you have to pass through two glass doors set into glass walls.

    It's dead and I see a woman approaching one of the outside doors from the parking lot. She walks full tilt into the glass wall next to the door, bounces off it and lands on her butt. Just as I am starting to go see if she is all right she picks herself up, does an embarrassed chuckle and brushes herself off. She looks and realizes she just walked into a wall and proceeds through the door as normal...

    ...and walks full tilt right into the inside glass wall, bounces off it and lands on her butt in the foyer.

    I saw a lot of drunk people and people on drugs on that job and, other than walking into two glass walls in a row, her dress, posture, stride and voice gave no indication that she was in any way impaired.
    You'll find a slight squeeze on the hooter an excellent safety precaution, Miss Scrumptious.
