So, my boss puts me on a till today despite it bloody obvious that I have a stinking cold. Two people called in sick already.
As a result, every couple of customers I ran to the nearby sink to blow my nose and wash my hands to stop me looking like a drippy slob. This customer, a mother with her husband and two teenage kids, was after such a run.
Me: (drying my hands) So sorry to keep you waiting.
Customer: No, no, it's quite all right, it is cold season after all. I'm surprised they put you on a till.
Me: Well, my boss can't say he wasn't warned before I even clocked in this morning. So I can blame him if anything goes wrong. What can I do for you?
Customer: Alright, I'd like two adults and two teens for [film] three regular hotdogs, one regular nachos, and a coke.
Me: (checking grill) I'm afraid we only have two large left, is that all right?
Customer: How much bigger are they?
Me: Twice as big and only 30p more each.
Customer: That's perfectly fine then.
Me: Oh, and if you upgrade your coke to large, I can get the nachos cheaper.
Customer: Sounds good to me.
So I get everything and she adds some ice cream, so I get that too, after I ring in her items, she adds ice cream to the list, I get that too (tubs).
The conversation ends in this:
Me: Here you are, enjoy your film!
Customer: Thank you, get well soon!
I love it when customers are like this!
