The Crazies!

People who come shopping at Publix are CRAZYY! Sometimes it really scares me to think that they got in a car and drove themselves to the store. Just yesterday while I was at work there was an old man, probably in his seventies or eighties sitting on the bench up front with a razor, dry shaving his face. He cut himself, blood was dripping down his face, and he continued to shave. I think I saw him even stick out his tongue and run the razor down that as well! Of course, all the employees and customers noticed but it still took a good fifteen minutes for any of the managers to do something about it. It was very disturbing and I was quite thankful that my register was not near him. Besides the crazies, we have paranoid people. Once a boy I work with was checking a customer’s credit car when his phone rang in his pocket. He forgot to turn it on silent that day so he took it out to turn it off. The customer then freaks out and causes a huge scene because she thinks he is trying to take a picture of her credit card number. She complained to the store manager and then the boy was fired. Personally, I don’t think that’s right at all because he was not trying to steal the credit card number and now he is out on the streets looking for a new job, and that is not the easiest thing to do these days. As long as it’s not me getting fired, I love to see these crazy, paranoid people. Makes my job a little more interesting.
