So, today at lunch, I ran up to the market and hit the deli counter. There was a new young man working the counter, being very careful not to fling food all over the place, still learning the cheat sheet for all the codes and such, and of course, one of the codes for something was throwing out the totally wrong price for the boomer bitch in front of me. He was getting help from a coworker on that, and getting her another container of something.

My lord, the sighs and eyerolls and then she goes “oh, this shouldn’t take so long” and looks at me like she’s gonna get buy in from me. I think not, lady and I just blurted out, “We have all been new at something at some point in our lives” and she shut up and stopped eye rolling.

JFC, give it a month and he’ll be able to get a pound of chicken salad into the container in one scoop in two seconds flat. For now, just be patient for an extra minute or two while he gets the hang of it all, it won’t kill you.

Besides, these people give you food you don’t have to cook, BE NICE TO THEM!
