You're nothing to me but baggage

Reputation Has Blunted Me

Customer: "Hi, can I order my son the chocolate Mousse? Yes, the one that's 3.95? Yes, Thank you"

Me: "Yes, sure. Here is your change. Have a grrreeeeattttttttt day!"

...............five minutes later:

I see a face wagging its way through the crowd. At first i'm unsure of why I feel uncomfortable, then I realize it's because it's the same woman who just ordered her slightly over weight son a $4 chocolate mousse and she looks like she wants to arm wrestle me. She arrives at the counter and it goes something like this:

"You know that pastry, that cake that YOU gave my son?"

"Uhm, the one you ordered? yes"

"Well he's allergic to sugar and now you've made him sick! I need water to flush out his sytem right away!"

I couldn't believe that someone had the audacity to order a pastry which consists of sugar and then accuse ME of poisioning her son. I felt really confused as to how I was getting in trouble but seeing as I hate confrontation, I just told her what she wanted to hear:

"Ohhh, i'm sorry, I didn't KNOW he was allergic to sugar"

I had never experienced the density of the sugar in a chocolate mousse; the only time i've ever eaten it is when Meri and Kristina tie my hands behind my back and make me eat like a wild animal. Anyways, she continued to further embarrass myself but informing me of the politics of her family:

"I am his grandmother and his mother does NOT know his adaptability. He can't have sugar!"

.....then she leans in closer.....

"and it's not even his mother, it's his aunt"

At this point I have no interest in hearing about the stories of illigitimate children whose parents feed them chocolate mousse cake only so they can bitch out people like me. Then she said something about how she will never stop saying "Christmas" because it's the birth of "Our Lord Jesus Christ"

People are strange.

I had the beeessstttt night last night. It was complimented by eating a good eggy breaky this morning with my church family. I got to watch a guy spill juice all over himself which was pretty awesome. I love Easter.

HE IS RISEN INDEED.
