The Case of the Omniscent Part Timer.

I’m sooooo tired of hundreds of people asking me every day the same questions:

- why is the store closing?
- its always so busy, is business that bad?
- are they transferring you all?
- where are you going to work?
- What are you going to do?
- where am I going to get my groceries?
- why don’t they have anything in the flyer?
- these prices aren’t so good why aren’t they less?
- what’s going to open up here afterwards?

So, I’ve decided to have some fun.

When someone asks what store is going to open up in our place, I’ve been telling them, “Blockbuster.” The reactions from customers are priceless. “What?? What a waste of space!”

When they ask why we are closing, I make things up. If another employee is standing nearby, I blame them for something.

When they ask where I’m going to work, I say making movies. Sometimes ill think of a movie plot and describe it as if that’s what’s going to happen. Think Zack and Miri make a porno.

One customer asked, “what are you going to do?” And I couldn’t resist the porn answer. So I said, “oh, I’m going to be an actress.”
“Really?!” He exclaimed. “Do you need a costar?”

“Oh, I don’t think you’d be interested in acting in THESE kind of movies….” And then I winked.

“Art films?” He asked.

“….yea. ‘art’ films.”

Well at least I’m having fun at their expense.
