A Conversation at Work

Cute-Semi-Regular Customer: Hi. Oh, you're wearing pants today.

Me: I usually wear pants when I'm in the cafe.

Shane: I joined this conversation at the wrong moment.

Cute-Semi-Regular Customer: I guess that sounds bad.

Me (to Shane): You see, he was here a few days ago and he said I always wear skirts. But Julie said I always wear pants. But I wear skirts on the bookside and pants...here.

Me (to CSRC): Thanks for saying that in front of my manager.

Cute-Semi-Regular Customer: Sorry, if I embarrassed you.


In other news, apparently during one of my nights as a greeter we also sold a record number of memberships. One of the managers thinks there's a connection, so now I'm greeting people several times a week. I may have to curl into a ball in a corner of the store and feast on my own hair.

Also, it looks like I'll be in GR for the first week in August.

    Darn it, Michele. You should just work without pants. Trust me, if you're standing behind a counter, the customers don't even notice some of the time.
