The 66 Surprising Items Cashiers Secretly Judge You For Buying—Number 23 Will Shock You!
**EDIT:** For those asking if she was joking, *maybe*. Her tone didn’t sound very jokingly, but I may be wrong. Either way, alcoholism is a serious thing and it kind of strikes a nerve when it’s implied in such a manner. **If it was obvious she was joking around, I wouldn’t have gotten so upset over it, but her tone really did make it feel offensive.**.
Not a cashier either, but when my friend would buy Depends you could tell the cashier and *everyone* in line would judge him hard. He was a 23 year old college kid who still peed the bed when he drank… He tried his best, man
edit: No, he didn’t wear them to parties. He *tried* to remember to put them on when he drunkenly got home. This led to him putting them on backwards multiple times. This effectively kept his p**s out of his diaper and in his bed. Once he forgot to put them on and brought a girl home. Let’s just say he convinced her that he drunkenly showered in the middle of the night. Her ride home must have been mortified. He’s not my friend anymore.
The only time I can remember having a thought about a customer was when they bought our camouflage print lingerie with pink edging. I honestly could care less if they wanted to buy it, even though I thought it was hideous, but while folding it I couldn’t get over how itchy the fabric was. I was curious about why someone would subject themselves to that.
Not a cashier, but I shop at Whole Foods. Invariably there will be someone in front of me. She will have some 30 buck snake oil supplement and an overloaded container of prepared food, the kind where you pay by the pound. She will pull out cash as she is wrung up and realize that she doesn’t have enough to cover both so she takes the snake oil and leaves the food, which cannot be resold. I assume not only is she a moron for buying some b******t supplement but is hoping the cashier will let her keep the food once it has been voided since it is going in to the trash.
The only time I really judged someone was when he came in and found a perfume he like and bought two. I said, “It would probably be a good idea if you have two women in your life {thinking wife, mother, daughter, etc} to get them something different.” He said, “Oh, no, one is for my wife, the other for my girlfriend. If they wear the same perfume I don’t have to worry about my wife smelling my girlfriend’s perfume on me.” I mean, that is smart, but it’s also s****y.
Freshman year of high school, I was a cashier at a local grocery store. There was an upscale “organic” cupcake boutique in town that sold their cupcakes for about $4 each. It was ridiculous, but people still bought them. Anyway, the owner would come in every other week and buy about 20 boxes of Betty Crocker cupcake mix and frosting. She must’ve had like a 2,000% rate of return on those things.
Edit: the cupcake boutique has since gone out of business, and the lady was a b****y soccer mom in her mid-thirties so I doubt she was the confession on here but it’s interesting to know how common this apparently is!
