7 Horrifying Checkout Line Moments We Know You Can Relate To
I married a man of a different race. In checkout line we were behind a mixed-race couple. My 3-year old daughter says, "Look Mommy there's a black daddy and a white mommy". As I nodded, she added loudly, "But you're not big and fat like her"!
These are NOT so embarrassing. I am a shift manager /service leader in a grocery store. Life happens... People forget their wallets often. We save the transaction & set aside their purchases until they return. Kids/toddlers often make comments about magazine covers. Pregnancy & nausea often occur together at the most inconvenient times. Stop being so embarrassed people! We're not laughing at you or laughing behind your back! We're human too, and have been in similar situations ourselves!
When I was about 12/13 I had a little brother that was 2/3 . He was in the fase of repeating EVERYTHING. We was at Wal-Mart and we got him goldfish as a reward for potty training and the cashier kept saying "I got to ring the shot up 6 times" over and over. My brother caught on and started saying "shit" over and over. I let my mom know who calmly asked her to watch her language. The cashier took it as a threat and started screaming and threatening my mom.Manager called cops and she was locked up
When my 3 yr old son and I approached the checkout, he loudly asked the male cashier why he was wearing earings. Then he proceeded to tell him that earrings were for girls. This attracted the attention of the other teen workers who started to giggle. Next he told the cashier that earrings made him look like a "douche rag". That was two years ago, and I still don't shop at that store.
