Cokey & Methelusa Go To Town
A couple of meth-heads came into the store today and, unbeknownst to me, yelled at some other cashiers in the store and a manager for fifteen minutes because they wouldn't give cash for a return without a receipt. See, the reason we usually don't refund returns without a receipt in cash is because the people who return such things have often stolen them. Especially when they're returning razors or baby formula, which is pricey. Most often, as well, you'd have no reason to return either. We're nice enough, most times, to refund the money to a gift card without hesitation, because I guess this way we get something out of it. Or, they just don't get fast money for coke and it's a bit of an irritant to the schemers.
Well.
This same couple of class-acts came to my line (on the other side of the store) and begged an old man to buy the gift card off them for a dollar or two less than it was worth. He was nice (naive) enough to do it, and they thanked him graciously, saying "Oh wonderful!! God bless you sir!"
I might be wrong, but I doubt God looks too fondly upon a couple of smackies bamboozling $30 cash off an elderly man in line at the local pharmacy so they can go shoot up in the gutter.
Also, today I again proved I am my father's daughter by telling a tiny old woman that another girl at work pointed out must have earlier been eating pistachios that she'd been caught red-handed.
Ehhh you had to be there.

How did the tiny old woman respond to being told of her caught-red-handedness?
An old man hit my father today (who incidentally, had been driving my car at the time), told my father that it was his own fault for getting hit, refused to give his insurance info, and fled the scene when my father told him he was calling the police. Fortunately my dad was quick enough to the guy's license plate number.
What is it with old people these day?
Old people ain't shit but hoes and tricks, Dan! Did they catch that old bastard or what?
The old lady said "Ohh, that is horrible. I will have to remember that one."
Usually when she comes through I get the impression that she suffers from some kind of dementia, so I was actually very pleased to have some sort of coherent response.
