Hi I am kimmik and I work retail as a cashier over nights at a big box....
I had one of my "favorite" type of customers.... so I thought it would be a good one to make my first post....
Now food stamps are not something that I don't begrudge anyone for using as everyone needs some help now and then.. it is those SC that misuse them and need a severe ass kicking for poor parenting that I hate .
Me-- cashier aka whipping girl
SC-- woman with 5 kids who are all up way to late and think that tearing up the store is fun
Me -- did you find everything alright?
Sc -- yeah whatever *starts to throw and I mean throw stuff on the counter*
the items are energy drinks, food items like shrimp frozen steaks , pez dispenser with candy, expensive water, etc.
during this her kids decide to use the rails by the carts as a jungle gym...
Me-- Ma'am could you please not let your children climb on the rails. They may get hurt.
SC-- For fuck's sake will you fucking brats knock it off so she will stop bitching and finish ringing my stuff up.
Me-- *bites lip and finishes ringing up the items.* Your total is 120 *it was somewhere in the 120s... cant remember exact price*
SC-- here *waves a food stamp card in my face* One of you dumb asses made it so it wont swipe.
Me- *politely takes the card and punches in the info* Ok ma'am your Cash total is 40 dollars.
SC-- I told you it was Food stamps why the hell do I have money still owed.
Me-- Well ma'am the energy drinks are not eligible for food stamps and neither are the pez dispensers even though they come with a little candy.
SC-- that is bullshit I can get them at x store on my card.
Me-- I am sorry ma'am but here they are not considered a food item. They really have no nutritional value.
SC-- then I dont want the damn things and you can keep the fucking pez too.
*at this point 3 of the kids begin to have a hizzy* I dont got fing money to spend on crap like that.
So I proceed to take off the items. To which she puts on the counter several expensive makeups. Wordlessly I ring them up and give her, her total... she then proceeds to pull out a wad of cash... and I mean a wad of bills not all ones and fives either. She proceeds to hand me a 50 dollar bill I ask if I should add the pez back on...
SC-- If I would have wanted them I would have told you to ring them up. I said I dont have money for that sorta crap there is more important stuff I need.
With that she got her change and herded her children with many expletives out the door....
She could afford 15+ dollar makeup but not 1.50 for the kids..
