All the kids are doing it...

It was a couple of days before Christmas and my line was crazy.

When I clocked in, I was informed by the manager that the entire store was out of regular sized bags. Instead, the cashier's would have to make due with the teenie tiny bags that are for cd's and jewelry OR the HUGE bags that were made for third world countries or smuggling large amounts of watermelons.

So for the people who buy a ton of medium sized items...you are just out of luck.

A creepy, thin man walks through my line with a buggy overflowing with boxes of Little Debbie Christmas Tree snack cakes. He looked like a grey headed Steve Buscemi.

Immediately, he informs me that he didn't count the boxes.

Seriously!?! Now I've got to count the boxes individually with my line backed up and countless pairs of eyes rolling in the back of their heads.

46. Read that again....The man bought 46 boxes of Little Debbie Christmas Tree Snack Cakes. 46.

One of the cool cartboys told me later that he even asked one of the floor workers to get him the ones we had in stock.

His total was over $130 for those interested.....

My curiousity got the best of me during the transaction:

"So...are these for you students or a boy scouts event?"

"No. Why?"

*awkward silence*

"Oh...no reason."


Does anyone else find 46 boxes of snack cakes suspicious, or is it just me? Is there a new way to make meth using Christmas Tree cakes that I've not yet been informed of?

What a bizarre job I work.....
