Had my first creepy customer today. A man was sidling around me as I shelved paperbacks and manned the register. He kept looking at me which usually means people are lost...USUALLY.
Me: Hi...can I help you find something?
Man: You work here?
Me: Yea, what are you looking for?
Man: You work here?
Me: Yes...
Man: I'm surprised I've never seen you here before.
Me: Oh...
Man: I'm just surprised because I'm here all the time and I've never seen you before.
Me: Well, haha....you know...uh can I help you find something?
Man: No, I'm here with the ret- ..that guy over there. He's always reading.
The man he was referring to was mentally challenged and I remember him from before, but it was so obvious the dude was going to say "retard." I left the area to pretend chat with the other newbie, David. I'm in a mood. I guess it's just been a whirlwind of a day. Two more crazy sale days before a break. I did, however, take advantage of sushi Wednesday at Byerlys. I think I need a haircut.
