My store is a very old store, its one of those grocery stores the company just forgot about. Instead of tearing it down and making one of those super cool stores with a sushi cafe, they just give us a paint bucket and tell us to repaint the walls. It isn’t like most grocery stores with the ,U-scan, fancy checkstands or even a wand that lets us scan heavy items without picking them up. A lot of customers who come into the store expects them all to be the same, “Where’s the sushi,” or “Do you have a Starbucks,” and in this case “Where’s your wand?”
Me: Hi! How are you?
Wand Lady: I have all these 12 packs, I don’t feel like taking them out of the cart. They’re too heavy. Where’s your wand?
Me: Umm… we don’t have wands here mam. I can grab them for you.
Wand Lady: Well you need to get a wand. Lord knows I’m not picking these things up again.
Me: Would you like some help out?
Wand Lady: You need a wand!
Me: Alright, have a great day.
Wand Lady: You need a wand!

Hey Paul, I know circumstances wouldn’t allow it because frankly we all need our jobs, but don’t tell me this wasn’t running through your head:
“You want a wand lady, you want a wand?? I’ll tell you what…
I GOT YOUR WAND RIGHT HERE BITCH!”
C’mon, the unemployment line isn’t that bad, is it?
HAHAHAHAHAHAH! I liked the comment, david!
