the other day i was closing alone. all well and good, it's slow, i had pretty much no customers for the last hour. about 10 to close, a guy in army bdus walked by. i was bored off my ass so i called out to him; "hey! we offer a military discount!" and gave him a cheesy thumbs up. he laughed and came over, telling me how broke he was and if he had money, he'd buy cookies.
i looked at the clock and shrugged. we had waaaaay too many cookies left over so i told him i'd give him some for free. i do this occasionally when we have a bunch left over and there's not much time left til close. he got all giddy and picked some out. the entire interaction took the remainder of the the time til close, so i went back and turned off the lights and switched off the cases. aaaaand dude guy was still there. he ended up talking to me for a good 20 minutes. he even commented on my engagement ring and we chatted for about 5 minutes about The Boy and how i can't wait for him for him to come home and marry him.
so i'm out front cleaning and doing what i can while he's talking because i don't want to be rude and tell him to gtfa. finally, i start counting the tils and he gets the clue that it's time for him to leave. guess what he does
go ahead, guess!
if you guessed "turned creeper," you guessed right!
he grabbed the pad of post-it notes off the register and said something like "i'm gonna do you a favor. you're cute and funny so i'm going to do you a favor and give you my phone number!" blah blah blah other stuff about how he's doing me a favor and then he pulls this one out "and thank your mom for your fine ass."
...okay then. took his number, said good night, and went into the back. he left. number went into the trash.
