I’m a customer in the check out line. I’m buying a box of tampons for my mom, who is bedridden after surgery. Suddenly, one of the two customers standing behind me in line speaks up.
Other customer: “Ha-ha what a p****. He’s buying tampons.”
I ignore the two and move forwards to the cashier. She’s an attractive girl of about 20 years old. I had never seen her before.
The customers behind me continue to snicker and whisper insults between each other. The cashier eyes them up and then serves me.
Cashier: “$5.71 after the discount.”
I have no idea what discount she’s talking about, but I pay her and get my change.
Cashier: *with a smile on her face* “Here you go baby, I’m taking my break now and I’ll see you at home at 8. Just leave the tampons in my car, please.”
She leans over the counter and kisses me on the cheek. She then turns the light off on the register number and walks off towards the other side of the store. The two customers watched her with their jaws open and angrily walk off to another register.
What a response. Buying tampons should NEVER be embarrassing. Share and like this story if you agree!
