And this is why I don’t make those jokes. Even good jokes turn annoying after the millionth time.

Who else works for “Slave”way? A mindless drone to the masses, ball ‘n chained to the work table or cash register, listening tot he most retarded customer complaints while putting on your best fake smile and wishing them a HORRIBLE day inside… as well as the power tripping management, ohhhhhhhhhhh yea, that too.

I was so good at checking, I would punch in the UPC on the register before anyone could use that lame joke on me. Now the lady with the lampshade on her head that said the barcode reader would alter the molecules inthe bottled water, she caught me off guard. =)

I’m currently a delivery driver for a catering company. On the way into each building with a load of food, without fail, some random passerby will say something along the lines of, “Oh, you can just leave that with me.” Then, in the elevator, without fail someone will say something along the lines of, “Well at least if the elevator gets stuck we won’t starve.” Two lame jokes for every single delivery. And I die a little every time.

My response when I worked retail: “You have made The Joke. I am now obligated to kill you.” It actually worked pretty well. People got the message and were duly chastened.

Oh yeah, that’s one of my favorites! Right up there with checking out a $20 ($50 or $100) and having the customer say; “Oh that’s good. I just made it this morning.” I’ve begun responding; “Really? You did an excellent job! I’ll be certain to pass this on to the Treasury Department so they can come around and compliment you on your handiwork!” So far, no one has taken offense.

I love that this comic exists. I’ve worked in retail for going on 3 years now primarily as a front end manager. So I hear this at least 10 times a day when I get a call on a price check. I never try to fake a laugh anymore, I usually just give a quick glare, and go back to checking the price. Some folks I find I am in a cheeky mood with and respond, “wow never heard that one before.” I also hear the, “just printed it this morning” response whenever I check for counterfeits. I usually say, “well good then I know it’s fresh.”

I hated when I was new and had a name tag that said, “New Team Member” I would get a lot of, “wow what a unique name” remarks. After a few weeks I started responding with, “ya my parents were some real original hippies. The name is the only reason I got a job here, now they can save money and not have to make me a real name tag.”

Yep. I’ve been a cashier. I’ve also been a server. This is right up there with people who say “Oh, were not staying for the drawing” when you bring them their check. Everybody thinks they’re just SO @#&$#%&@ original!!!
