A Crazy Or Embarrassing Situation In A Store?
I had two last night!
I went grocery shopping and as I went through the aisles I seem to be trailing this older couple with their grand kid. The woman was constantly talking and complaining and as she went on and on the complaining became quite bizarre, from her claims that the vegetables were stacked oddly and why this was close to that etc. The man looked weary and silent so I imagine this is a norm for him. (Poor guy.) I end up behind them at checkout. Common practice is to put the bar between orders and put your items on the belt. I took a tiny section and had some milk and other frozen items when suddenly she whirls around on me, inches from me and snarls, we are still loading items! and proceeds with two hands to shove my stuff to the edge until they are almost falling off! The cashier gives me a WTF look that I must have had on my own face, but instead of coming back at her I kept my mouth shut and calmly waited for space to put up more items. I don't like drama and clearly the woman has mental health issues and why make it worse for her husband and grand kid? It's a good thing I had just been boxing and cleared out the negative cobwebs.
The embarrassing one. I got my coffee after and this guy smiled at me so I smiled back thinking he was flirting. Then he says you look familiar. I say you too and we find out we went to school together. Lamented a bit about how getting older is tough. He said I still looked the same. (Flatterer haha) so I walk out feeling great, get in my car and see that the wind had blown my hair 4 different directions and I must have looked crazy. Vanity never wins! 😁🤣
