I was back from my break today, which means I was in the last half of my shift, which means my brain had pretty much already checked out.
Out of the corner of my eye I see my next customer approaching.
I look up ... and up ... and up.
The guy was built like a goddam bank vault door.
AND he's wearing camo. NOT the "weekend warrior" camo -- the real thing, with various bits and bobs on it that made it clear he was legit military. He was also wearing a nifty little beret on his head with a little green pompom on top of it.
Me: *blink* *blink*
I was pretty sure my facial expression was neutral but given the little grin on his face throughout the entire transaction, I'm thinking it was probably more like
.
No, I didn't give him a discount (we don't have military discounts up here, that I know of) but if I see him again, I definitely will.
My sister asked if I saluted him.
