Oh I have another one,

A young girl about 14 or so came up to me when I was working on the till once, she was wearing a big floppy hat and sunglasses to hide her age. She dumped on my till the cheapest vodka we sold, about £5 worth of coppers and small silvers, the worst fake ID* I've ever seen. She then turned slightly to look at three kids who were standing just within view of the till and gave them a sly thumbs up thinking I wont notice her doing it. Needless to say I refused to serve her.

*It was literally a scanned or printed front of a driving licence that she had nicked off her sister or someone and stuck it onto the front of a store card.



LOL... but whats a till. I dont understand that English terminology.

Urgh, I've had the lottery ticket one before where they let the silly supersticious nonsense get the better of them. you get it all, like...

Customer: May I get that lottery ticket.

Me: (Reels one off)

Customer: No not that one, this one, this one looks lucky.

Me: No, that ones like five tickets in, I'm not ruining my roll just for you.

...or...

Customer: Can I get a lottery ticket.

Me: (Hands one over)

Customer: (Goes off scratches them and comes back) Oh wow, I won £5 must be my lucky day, I'll have 5 more please... Oh, I lost all five.

I always used to think 'you bloody idiot' at that point.

Oh yeah, I forget that not all people understand English terminology. If I start refering to pants as trousers, 14 days as a fortnight, spelling colour with a 'u' and using the metric system, please feel free to stop me lol.

A till is what you would call a 'checkout'  or 'cashiers desk'I think.

LOL! Whenever I gamble I would take my money. If I won my money back I'd just put it back in. If I won more than what I put in I'd put a little more than I first put in off to the side and not spend it and put the rest back in.

But yeah, I've had people ask me what number the rolls were on for each ticket... there were about 30 rolls.

For the big lottery I've had people get randomized numbers... but 1 set of numbers on 10 different tickets... rather than having them all 10 sets on the same ticket. "Because its more random"

The most random and funny shit happens working at a convience store...

Fortnight would be the only thing confusing for me on the list. Google helps me with the metric system.

Have you ever had a problem with counterfit bills?

Haha. Nah, I've ever had a problem with counterfeit notes, why, have you?



LOL yes, a few times.

Each time the customer tries to claim its real. Once I could see a lady acting a little nervous shuffling her bills around and I didn't realize what she was doing till I counted the money. She tried tucking the counterfeit in the middle so I wouldn't notice. She said she got it as change... I believed her but she tried telling me she didn't know it was fake... which I didn't believe. If you ever saw one you can tell the difference. The texture and color is completely off.

There really isn't any dialogue to describe easily. It's just basically

"Sorry this is fake"

Trying to act surprised

"...huh... What? No it isn't"

"Yes, yes it is" pull out the marker and show it

You really can't understand the humor in it till you see their faces and hear their excuses.
