I keep thinking that I am going to run out of stories and then I go to work.
This day I was working as a cashier. It was crazy. Long lines. No bagger to help me. I had this one customer come through my line. I rang up her stuff and bagged the items. I even walked around and put them in her cart. The customer leaves. I continue with my line for the next twenty minutes. All of a sudden, she comes up to my register (the opposite way, not as a customer) and starts accusing me of stealing her groceries. I must have had a look of shock on my face. The woman went a little crazy, telling me that I stole all of her groceries. When I realized that she was serious, I said, "I don't have your groceries. I bagged them and put them into your cart. There's nothing at my register and nothing in my apron. I wouldn't steal someone's groceries." She huffed and went back into the store to shop.
I made sure I let the store manager know what happened, in case they have to check the security tapes.
In case you are wondering, this is a regular customer. You might remember my story about her showing me her phone as her ID card. She now makes sure to come to my line when I am ringing (oh, lucky me). The other cashiers call her my friend.
