First of all I was called skinny, that was a first. Stephenie, my manger, made try on clothes like all day yesterday, and I come out of the dressing room in a dress and she tells me how skinny I am. Is it sad that I love working there because I am one of the smallest people on payroll and normally one of the smallest in the store. I love these job!
And then I was checking out this lady and they have to give their phone numbers. It was a 336 area code which encompasses a rather large area, but then 667 came out of her mouth.
"Are you from Wilkesboro?"
"Yes, I am. How did you know that?"
"The number. I would even venture to guess the country club."
"Yes that is right. Are you from there?"
"Born and raised."
"Oh, I am so sorry." I know that Wilkesboro is small, but 'I am so sorry'? Really!?!?!?! I might have hated it for a time, but I am proud that I am from there. How can she assume that I hate it? I mean what the hell? She is not even from there, she chooses to live there. But she is moving back to Virgina soon. Crazy lady!
Then I went to go get Wendy's after work and then to Aly's. The guy at the at the drive thru comments on my 'trust no one' sticker, which I of course had to explain was X-Files. Which then proceeded in a conversation about the wonder of the show that included the entire staff. One nerdy kid came running from the back to ask me about the movie and if I thought it was good. I told him it was ok, I could not break his heart and tell him how awful it was.
you are so funny!!! and you ARE small!!!
ReplyDeletei am glad you didn't crush the nerds heart... it probably already happened to him 8 times the same day!
