Have you at any point been stuck behind a client with such a large number of things in a shop’s express path? As of late, a Walmart client shared this account of a clerk standing firm against a customer who didn’t want to keep the guidelines.
The best second I at any point had in a Walmart. I was in Colorado Springs. I had a portion of bread, a gallon of milk, and two or three different things.
This lady whose truck was spilling over, nearly runs me over to get before me at the 10 things line.
The lady begins to empty her truck onto the checkout stand and the clerk says, ‘Which ten things could you like, ma’am?”
The lady stops and says, “What?”
The clerk answers in a quiet, patient tone, “This is ten things or less express line.”
While talking she holds up two hands showing every one of the ten fingers. Then she highlighted the sign over the path which read Ten Things or Less in both English and Spanish.
The lady gets generally embarrassed and says, “I need all of this!”
The clerk, “Ma’am, Please accept my apologies. As I said, this is a ten things or less line, if it’s not too much trouble, pick the ten things you might want to buy today.”
The lady right now lets out this clamor that sounds like somebody jabbed one of those shouting goats pushed her actually spilling over truck as hard as possible. It nearly hit this little elderly person sitting on a seat. Then she gave us all who were snickering at her the finger, said “F*** you!” and stomped out.
I bought my things and tipped the clerk $20 for the best comedy satire second I’d found in years.
