Not alot of suckage as such, but some interesting stories nonetheless.
I'm totally not doing anything suspicious, like fer sure
Day before Halloween I was at the front register. This girl, possibly seventeen, maybe eighteen, and her friend come to my line with four dozen eggs in tow. Yes.
EG: Egg Girl
Me
EG: Okay, I know this looks bad but honestly we're not going to do anything.
She sounded sincere so I just shrugged and kidded her as I rang up the eggs.
Me: Well, I believe you but come on, you buy this many eggs and someone's going to ask questions.
The girls seemed genuinely embarrassed but in good spirits and they muttered something about making their parents buy the eggs this time. Maybe they were running an errand for their parents, maybe they were about to start crap. But they were polite and apologetic so I figured it's none of my business.
Yes, but which model?
The day of Halloween I was back in my beloved electronics section and it was packed. Had some shoplifting that wasn't discovered until it was too late. I actually felt bad because the movie a customer had wanted to buy was Blarth Mall Security Cop or something like that, and someone had broken the seal and took the DVD but left the casing. It was the last copy too.
Other than that, this one guy showed up who clearly wasn't all that bright.
Charger Guy = CG
Me
CG: I need a cellphone charger.
Me: Okay, what phone do you have?
CG: Singular.
Me: *Leading him to the chargers* I know, but is it a Samsung, a Blackberry?
CG: No, it's a Singular.
Me: Okay, Singular is the service, right?
CG; Yes.
Me: But what model of phone are you using.
CG: *Insisting* It's a Singular Cellphone.
I pull out my Virgin Mobile.
Me: Okay, do you see how this is an LG? *CG nods and I point to a Tracfone* And do you see how Tracfone makes an LG as well?
CG: I know but all it says on my cellphone is Singular, right across the top.
Me: Do you have the phone with you?
CG: No.
Me: Okay, *gesturing to the wall of chargers because I'm too busy to really play this game today.* If we don't have your model here then you'll have to try "Two other popular chain stores that are located in the same plaza".
