Yet another one from deep in the archives: Originally posted on January 9th, 2008.
Hurray!
I made it through the day without having a coughing fit! And in an odd way, I was hoping to have one because one of our germaphobic regulars had been what could best be described as a “big fucking moron” over the phone and I really wanted to hack up a lung at the register while he wrapped the pen in a tissue to avoid getting cooties. I imagine that his eyes would bug out somewhat and he’d run away, and then I’d feel good for the rest of the night.
Side note: One of our regular customers told me yesterday that although she liked my red hair, she thought it made me look a bit like a hooker. “But not one of those nasty ones you see on ‘Cops’,” she told me.
