  • Take it. Just take it.

    This isn't under Sucky Customers because the Customer wasn't actually sucky -- just the situation.

    Customer's purchases include two small packages of some sort of chip-type food (not potato chips; one of the allegedly healthier alternatives). I ring them in; one is $3.49, the other $3.99.

    Customer: "No, those are 2 for $5."

    I call Groceries. They go look it up. "No, those are Health Food Department."

    Okay. I call HFD. They send somebody over.

    "No, those are Grocery Department."

    I stare at Customer who stares back.

    Me: "Ya know, I don't care anymore."

    Customer: "Um, do I get one of those for free?" (We have a policy that if the items ring up wrong they customer gets one for free.)

    Me: "Yes, yes you do. What was the price again?"

    Customer: "Two for $5."

    I ring them in at that price, with one for free. Was it right? Don't know, don't care.

    Where a case of "pass the buck" costs the company at least $2.50.
    "I look at the stars. It's a clear night and the Milky Way seems so near. That's where I'll be going soon. "We are all star stuff." I suddenly remember Delenn's line from Joe's script. Not a bad prospect. I am not afraid. In the meantime, let me close my eyes and sense the beauty around me. And take that breath under the dark sky full of stars. Breathe in. Breathe out. That's all."
