I went to the store at lunch time. My supernatural ability to pick the WRONG line is still strong. There were two 60 something women in front of me in the line. Both had just a few items. Both of them were well dressed and looked to be very middle class normal female humans. The first one had to figure out if she wanted cash back and how much cash she needed. Like it might be a surprise and a difficult decision which it was for her.
The second woman had her credit card rejected. So out comes the second card. Rejected as well. Out comes number three credit card. Guess what, REJECTED. So then she goes digging in her wallet for the super hard to access backup number 4 fail safe and finally it goes through. Finally. She had a stack of several more credit cards to try.
As I finally get to the troll, um er bar code reader teller person the very cute chick in the next isle opens up for business and it is way too late for me to change lines.
