(I am ringing up a mother and her son.)
Me: “Alright, ma’am, your total is $**.**.”
Son: “Wow, that is so much money! You’re taking all my momma’s money!”
Me: “Actually, your mother is paying for the items that she just purchased, and I’m not the one who gets the money anyways.”
Son: “Do you think I’m dumb? You get all the money; why else would you be here?”
Me: “The money that is paid here is made by the company. I’m here because the company pays me to check out customers.”
Son: “That’s stupid. You should get to keep the money.”
(As I’m about to respond, the mother chimes in.)
Mother: “Just ignore him, he’s stupid.”
