Truckers Surprise All Of Us

[Halo_miles]

Where I work, in the Great North, is for a company that was referred to by someone (sadly, I forgot the user's name. If you happen to read this, I apologize!) as, "Aviator/Soaring K", we have some of the greatest customers, offset by some of the dumbest abominations to ever grace the planet with their presence.

One of our customers, flattered by my compliment about his hat, bought me one from the States. He's an older gentleman, and comes in every week wearing a different fedora, and some of these are so badass. He even had one with silver wings! Silver wings!

Another, who frequents the States on his run, spoke with me about chocolate bars, and I mentioned that I'd never had a Payday bar. He bought me two king size next week, then his wife bought myself and the entire staff two whole boxes of them. I still have yet to think of a fitting gift to buy him in return. Any ideas?

The third is a man that I'll call Grim. We randomly started speaking one day, and I'd mentioned that I have an extremely vested interest in morbid things (I've studied fingerprinting, embalming, poisons and whatnot, but I digress...the whole family is interested in it, my younger sister has a degree as a mortician) and I mentioned all sorts of different serial killers. Now everytime he comes in, he waits specifically to go to my till to talk with me about these things....and it scares the hell out of my coworkers.

I wish I could have more customers like these wonderful people. I've met many who come out of their way to come see us, because they love that we're happy at our jobs, and it reflects well on the company. I love my job, and I love my customers.

That would be me. Haven't been to a Canadian location lately - do you have the R134A cans that are part of the current promotion south of the border? I was at a U.S. location that only had the "with leak sealer" variety, then stopped at one that had both. On a return visit to the one with only "with leak sealer", I let them know that they had an error on their display - the shelf tag was for the "no leak sealer" variety, which was a couple bucks cheaper. Wonder how many SCs they got when it scanned at higher than the shelf price?
