He put a pistol to my head and yelled, "Don't do anything smart."
"Um," I stuttered. "Sure...OK."
"Open the cash register!" he yelled.
"I don't know how to."
He said, "Don't be dumb."
I said, "Fucking hell, make your mind up."
It's a POS device
The bitter, better-batter bought her butter!
She was checking me out!
and I notice these big 200 pack containers of Tic Tacs, so I point them out to my dad and say "look, that is intense."
And my dad says back, "That's not intense, that's on a shelf!"
There with a company with a lot of travelling salespeople, and they had an accounting procedure that was somewhat unusual. Since the salespeople were driving around a lot, they had to pay a lot of highway tolls. They would get reimbursed for this. Since these expenses were so common, and different from other expenses, they had a series of ceramic tiles that represented the amount of money they paid to take these highways. At the end of the day, after travelling their routes, they would come back and put them in the cash register and take money out to reimburse themselves. But the highways all raised their rates, and so the salespeople would come back with hands full of their tiles. So one Friday, after raised rates and very busy travel, the boss came in to look at the receptionist and her overloaded cash register. He asked her what was going on, and she said:
"The tall tiles in the till tell a tale of tall tolls"
Pointing his firearm at two cashiers, he shouts “hand over the contents of the cash register! I need it to set myself up in a trade or profession...you know, a habitual occupation followed for a livelihood and involving commercial transactions!”
Cashier 1: “What do we do?”
Cashier 2: “Do what he says, I think he means business!”
Right after paying for our food at the cafeteria at work.
Co-worker about the woman working the cash register: "Dude, she just totally checked me out."
Me: "Yea she checked me out too. There goes $4.60."
A man walks up to a cash register to pay and while his items are being scanned, the cashiers says if he wants the cartons of milk in a bag. The man replies with "No, leave the milk in the carton."
My dad and I go up to the cash register at a clothing store to pay for some shorts. My dad asks the cashier "Do you take chips?" (Credit card chip readers) Without hesitation the cashier goes "Yes sir and we have salsa to go with that" and holds up a fresh jar of salsa from behind the register
I was at the cash register, and a guy placed his order. At the end, he asked for "a glass of water." That is, a big cup instead of a little cup. I said, "I'm sorry, I can't do that. I can give you a laminated paper of water, though."
He thought it was funny, but he did a great job of hiding it.
Father and son place there order and arrive at the cash register to pay and the total was $12.03.
Dad "You got three cents?" Son "No." Dad "Course not you got no sense."
son groaned, I chuckled
This is an older story, I think it was roughly 98 or 99. My little brother was getting into rock and was listening to Limp Biskit and Korn. He saved up some money to get a CD so my dad took him to Sam Goody. My little brother gets the newest hit record by Korn and brings it to the counter and check out. With my dad by his side, he places the record on the counter and the late nineties rocker chick, loaded up with tons of eye liner and hot topic wear working the cash register says "oh yeah! I love Korn, I know everything about them, I have all their records." Without a fucking second thought and the straightest face, my dad says "I guess that makes you a little corny."
I was covering a cash register while the normal cashier was on break when this guy walked up to me to check out. As i was ringing him up, he casually asked, "do you think they have the 4th of July in England?" I told him "I have no idea", and he responded, "of course they do, it comes between the third and the fifth!"
I was so proud of him.
I go to college in Wisconsin but I am from Texas, and I went to go cash my paycheck today. Cash register lady asks for my ID and says, "The abbreviation for Texas is TX, right?" I say, "Yeah that's correct." She says, "Okay" I respond, "No, that's Oklahoma."
Flew over her head but I got a couple of chuckles out of the dad's behind me in line.
