You Don't Even Know Me


Went to Fred Meyer earlier this week.  Accidently went to the same cashier lady who always makes weird conversation with me.  That conversation went like this:

Cashier: How are you?
Me: Fine. How are you?
Cashier: Good.  How was your thanksgiving?
Me: Really good, I had to work Thanksgiving but my family celebrated the day before and it was really nice.
Cashier: Oh what do you do?
Me: I’m a nurse at Whoseywhatsy Hospital
Cashier: Oh cool. Don’t we just have the best garlic?
As she’s scanning my garlic…
Me: Yeah, it’s pretty good. (I'm thinking...how random is this?)
Cashier: So did you go to school here?
Me: No.  I went to Whoseywhatsy College.  I’m from Whoseywhasty, so it’s closer to home.
Cashier:  Oooh…..so you are one of the  elite.  You have a Bachelors of Science.  Wow.  So how long have you lived here?

*Are you getting the idea that cashier lady asks a lot of questions?  I am.

Me: Not very long
Cashier: Have you met people?  Are you getting involved?
Me:  I’m working on it, but it takes time.  
Cashier: Are you seeing anyone?

*Okay, the road of this conversation just hit a speed bump.  I’m feeling totally weird.

Me: ummmm
Cashier: I have this customer.  Greatest guy ever.  I could set you up.  I have his email.  Oh your blushing….look at you turning all red.
Me(as I’m backing away from the counter): Uh, maybe another time….thanks.

*That was embarrassing.  End of story.  Have a nice day.

Hmm. Maybe you should consider self-checkout. They both, however, give you grief and a lot of back-talk! And that self-checkout lady is super sensitive! You set your bananas any way other than her way and she let's you know about it!!

It's a Catch-22.
Hope you are doing well.
