Lying Is All Relative(s), Part 3
Pharmacy | Right | August 5, 2015
(I’m in high school, and work at my father’s pharmacy during the summer. One day a woman who looks to be in her mid-twenties rushes up to my line, cutting several people. She dumps multiple boxes of prescription medication on the counter, as well as about $50 worth of make-up, hair dye, and jewelry.)
Customer: “I’m the owner’s daughter, so I get all this stuff for free, okay?”
Me: “Ma’am, please get to the back of the line.”
Customer: “For the love of God, just ring me up! I’m the owner’s daughter! I don’t have time to wait!”
Me: “You’re the owner’s daughter?”
Customer: “Yes! What are you, f****** deaf? Just f****** ring my stuff up so it won’t set off the alarm!”
Me: “Wow, that’s such a coincidence.”
Customer: “Excuse me?”
Me: *smiling widely* “I’m the owner’s daughter, too!”
(The customer stared at me for a second, then turned beet red and ran out of the store, leaving her items on the counter. She hasn’t been back since!)
