The swearing I could tolerate. The bad attitude I could tolerate. Calling me an ableist slur? Nope, not happening. I literally dropped the security check scanner and started to walk away.
Customer: "Where the f*** are you going?!"
Customer: "Can't you go any faster?!"
Me: *Talking as slow as an Ent.* "No, sir, I have to make sure I don't do more than fifteen per transaction. Now, was this item number six… or item number seven? Hmm, I can't remember. Better start over to be sure."
I normally ask the guests which doughnuts or muffins they want so that I can grab them with gloves on. There was a regular guest who had a four-year-old who constantly jumped up and picked his muffin out, touching each and every one.
I have no idea where the romance section went, but I don’t see an employee to send her to, and it really isn’t that big of an inconvenience to give it a shot. I start my answer with:
Me: "I don’t know, but—"
Customer: *Interrupting.* "—It's really unprofessional that you don’t know where anything is!"
My mother is overweight, just enough to make your average public transportation uncomfortable. We booked a flight together and purchased all three seats in one row so that she had space. I took the aisle seat, and she sat by the window. While everyone was boarding, a woman came up.
Woman: "Is anyone sitting in the middle there?"
When Kiera got to the store, somebody was outside trying to get in. Kiera tried to tell the man that they were closed, but he insisted that he just needed one thing, that it was an emergency, etc. Of course, Kiera knew better than to let him inside, but he was absolutely insistent that he had to buy this one thing right now.
This was overheard by me at a library. A tutor is helping a small child with a math lesson, using a sheet of paper that they can see but the child can’t. The tutor is being very loud. Tutor: Seven times four is twenty-eight, seven times five is thirty-five, seven times six is thirty-six- Small […]
<a href=https://notalwaysright.com/that-probably-tanked-morale-for-a-while/350383/>This story</a> reminded me of an incident from my school days. In the front hall of our private school was a large, evidently somewhat old oscar fish (a kind of cichlid), aptly named “Oscar”. The kindergarten students, whose classroom he was nearest, had the duty of feeding him and took it VERY seriously, and […]
This happened when we were much younger and was the greatest version of a Reverse Uno event that I ever experienced. My brother had been a pain in the butt all day, driving me nuts to the point I chased him outside. He ran off, laughing and I scowled, shook my head, and slammed the […]
(I need to go to the pharmacy to get my flu and covid vaccines. I am really not looking forward to the side effects, especially since my wife wants to go out to dinner for her birthday and I would hate to have to ask her to reschedule. Finally it is my turn and the […]
AU - yue qingyuan returns to the Qiu late in the fire, but xiao jiu dies and he rescues his soul and puts it inside a puppet in the image of xiao jiu and nobody in cang qiong notices.
This remains one of my favorite comics just because of how smiley Yue Qingyuan is through the whole necromancy process

When I was a woman in my 20s, I really seemed to emit some kind of friendly/ approachable vibe so a lot of strangers would chat with me in public and I’d go with it. I like talking! As you can probably imagine, sometimes it was men trying to flirt or ask me out. I’ll […]
So i work with a guy who sometimes I wonder about. Well not just me but several other co workers. He seems to have difficulty in finding anything, even if it’s throughly explained where it is. He always says he can’t find it or he doesn’t see it, despite him looking right at it. This […]
Customer: "This isn’t what I ordered, not even close."
Me: "We're slammed tonight, so it was probably misheard. I do apologize. We can get that remade for you right away."
Customer: "The person who took my order must have been f****** deaf!"
Two guys, easily mid-to-late thirties, come in and beeline straight for me.
Guy #1: "Where's the underwear department?"
Me: "Fourth floor."
Guy #2: "No, that's the guys' underwear. Where's the underwear for the ladies?"
Manager: "Yeah, so I can't get in for my shift. The freeway closed."
Me: "No s***. So, do I close up and go home?"
Manager: "What gave you that idea? You need to stay until closing."
Me: "You want me to stay until 9 PM? Even after I opened?
