Cashier at Meijer

I ran to Meijer on my lunch to buy my baking supplies for this evening.

This is how my coversation with the cashier went:

C: Hello? How are you?

Me: Good thanks. How are you?

C: Good. This coupon is for general merchandise only and you have more groceries than anything, do you want to keep it and come back tonight?

Me: No. I will not be back tonight.

C: Oh, you off work?

Me: Nope. Just on my lunch break

C: Oh, so you going to relax tonight?

**SMACKS FOREHEAD**

What I wanted to say was this:

Yes, b/c clearly the presence of $50 in BAKING supplies and me BUYING them on my LUNCH means a relaxing evening in my future!

But I was nice and didnt say that.

I said No, I have to do a lot of baking tonight and this weekend bc my ILs had other plans for me last night and I didnt get around to it.

Then she carried on for 5 minutes about how this one time her baby daddy's mom who she is no longer dating would come over all.the.time and how she would come over unannounced and her and her baby daddy would have to hurry up and clean the apartment. Then she carried on to tell me that she thinks this lady stalks her.

OMG! I just stood there and smiled and kept trying to walk away.

  • You must have "talk to me" stamped on your forehead too.  I swear that anytime I run a quick errand on lunch everyone has a random ass story to tell me....  hell, I'm a friendly person, but I'm in a rush people!

  • I hate situations like that! I'm a polite person and always say hello and goodbye - but definitely don't need to know everyone's life story!
  • They must hire weird people. I was at Meijers a few days ago...also in kind of a hurry to get home. In the middle of scanning my items, she stops, looks at me and says "Quick trivia! What movie is this song from?"

    I stared blankely for a moment as I didnt have a clue what she was talking about. I couldn't hear any music.

    She proceeds to inform me it was from The Grinch (with Jim Carrey).

    I still couldn't hear any music playing and was a little confused. I smiled politely and nodded in agreement. ???

  • I get so annoyed when the cashiers try to make conversation, I'm like scan the groceries and get me outta here!!  Usually I have 2 screaming kids so I have no time for small chat, or waiting for the people in front of me to chat.. UG!!
