So I had a customer come in the other day and say “I need 20 dollars worth of gas on pump 5. and I’d like a carton of bronsons in a box.”
I went to get the carton of cigarettes and rang it up. “That’ll be forty-three dollars and six cents,” I said.
The customer looked up from his wallet with a startled and almost-angry expression. “How much were the cigarettes!?” he exclaimed.
And then today, I had two customers come in. the first one had a soda and a couple of other assorted items. I rang everything up and I said “Is that all for you?” (Or something to that effect, anyway.)
The customer replied, “No. I’d also like 2 two dollar crossword lottery tickets.”
I took his money, gave him his change, and (hitting all of my contacts, of course) turned to the next customer. Before I could say anything to him, he turned to the first customer and said, “Hey, how much were those tickets?”
And AGAIN!
A lady came up to the counter with a whole bunch of food items and several two liters. I greeted her, rang everything up, and she informed me that she wanted a pack of Newport 100s in a box.
“Okay. Your total will be eleven seventy-three,” I said.
The customer pointed at all of the merchandise on the counter with an impatient look on her face. “Did you get all of this stuff, too?” She asked me.and one that threw his pumpstart card at me when it wouldn't take it outside and i calmly informed him that he might have a rip on it and needs to come back to the store so we could call for him- but he'd have to do it tomorrow between 8 and 5.
wtf. i love our customers
