I Now Work at Quizno's (we have a pepper bar)
My first day of work yesterday went pretty well. I only made about fifty mistakes and tried to overcharge people a couple of times. But it was all right. It was incredibly busy, though. Today it was much more relaxed. But my back hurt after standing for three hours. OK this isn't going to be as funny when I type it... in fact I don't know if it will be funny at all. But this in a conversation I had with a customer today after giving her her change of 40 cents as four dimes.
Lady: "So I guess you don't have an quarters left."
(My thought: what the heck are you talking about?)
Me: "Um, yeah, I have quarters."
Lady (in a voice that made me think she thought I was stupid): "Twenty-five, Thirty-five, Fourty!"
So I guess she wanted me to give her a quarter, a dime, and nickle. Don't you think that is a weird thing to tell a cashier? I do.
So far I know how to use the cash register (although I am not very fast) and refill dressings and restock chips and cookies and take cardboard boxes to the dumpster. Aren't you proud of me?
