Today we were thinking about the good old days at our other store, and discussing some of the funnier moments.
One of the girls is leaving for a new job, and we were remembering back to when she helped us price for a while. (Back when I had a good crew.
)
She's a bit of a space cadet, and one day, she was pricing and held out a thermal jug to me, asking, "Uh, Ree, is this supposed to have broken glass in it?"
Being a smartass, I said, "Oh yes, as a matter of fact they do ship those with broken glass in them for packaging purposes." (Here's your sign.
)
Another day, she was pricing, and held up a box with a hydraulic jack in it and said, "Oh, as if this weighs 12 tons."
I said, "Uh, hon...it means that it holds 12 tons, not that it weighs 12 tons. For crying out loud, ya silly twit, if it weighed 12 tons you wouldn't be lifting it, and it certainly wouldn't be in a box that small."
Another one we giggled over was the guy who passed a bad cheque one time.
The cashier described him to me as having a glass eye. She said she clearly remembered that, and would be able to recognize him because of that.
HC asked me about the cheque, and I said I hadn't been at the cash, but the girls had described him to me, and mentioned he had a glass eye.
Without even thinking about the wording, she said, "OK, just keep an eye out for him if he ever comes in again."
I cracked up.
Ah...good times. Can't go back there. *sigh*
