You’re Not My Type

by PkWynn on December 8, 2009

At most stores, saver cards are required in order to get the sale price. However, they do not need to be presented physically. Inputting the phone number that’s linked to the saver card will still provide the benefits of the sale price. Many customers do not like to carry a bunch of cards in their wallets or purses, especially saver cards because they’d rather use their phone number to get the discount, but some customers just don’t get it if they forget theirs.

Me: Do you want to slide your saver card?

I’m Too Good for You: I didn’t bring it.

Me: Oh…what’s your phone number?

I’m Too Good for You: Umm…

Me: Your phone number can…

I’m Too Good for You: Look, I’m flattered but you’re not my type.

Me: Excuse me?

I’m Too Good for You: I wouldn’t date a guy who works in the grocery store.

Me: But…

I’m Too Good for You: I’m sure you’re a nice guy and all, but you’re just not my cup of tea.

Me: I just wanted your number for the saver card savings…

I’m Too Good for You: Oh my! I feel embarrassed!

Me: (Under my breath) You’re not the only one…

    Oh my god. Some mean part of me hopes that this person *never* finds anyone who’s “good enough.”

    Crazy,
    You think that judgmental, elite type of mindset would not exist anymore in our economy(especially in Portland’s economy) But then again, it doesn’t suprise me because I witnessed the different types of eletists that came through that store and stuck their noses at me. I shouldn’t judge, but I could pretty much tell they looked at me and saw “the man” with a complete disregard to me as a person. But you can’t tell pretentious hipsters on the clock about how much less culutered they are, so I guess they’ll never know that I actually know MORE about music and bicycles then they do. Oh well, enough about my experience. “I’m too good for you” seems to be very insensitive to her social responsibility, I mean, given her misunderstanding, it was ok to turn you down. But, giving you those reason with such a condescending tone is completely inexcusable. I hope she finds a nice doctor to marry. Sorry for the rant. Paul, if I were gay, I would totally give you my number ;)
