Hello! The head-scratcher of the day, just as the title says! I know this is right around the time where the phrase "ringing up" became a thing after James Ritty's cash register manifested in 1883, but in most photos/illustrations I've come across so far for this time, I haven't stumbled across any cash registers. Had these purchases mainly been an over the counter exchange with profits sent straight to a cash drawer by salesclerks right then and there? Or were there set check out counters (complete with cash register) that customers would be directed to, per department purchases, on each floor? Ideally inquiring for layout purposes, but most floor plans I've found are from 1920s on, with no mentions of a check out counter, only product placement. I hope this question makes sense...Thank you in advance to anyone who has anything to offer here ^.^
Couldn't find the answer anywhere.
Minsan, tumingin tingin ako sa isang accessories shop sa isang mall. "Welcome, sir", sabi ng clerk, sabay ngiti. Tinungo ko yong isang rack, sinundan nya ako. Pumunta ako sa kabila, sumunod naman sya. "Mukha ba akong magananakaw?", sabi ko sa sarili ko. Pumunta ako sa kabila, sumunod na naman sya. Nawalan na ako ng gana, lumabas nalang ako.
Minsan, sa isang clothes shop naman. Tinignan ko yong isang damit. "Yan, sir. Maganda po yan sir. Black." "Alam ko.", sabi ko sa sarili. Pumunta ako sa kabilang rack, sinundan ako. Nainis ako, binilisan ko yong lakad ko at umikot ikot sa mga racks tas sabay labas.
Tanong ko lang, kailangan ba talagang sunod ng sunod sila sa mga customers? Nakakainis kasi. Pwede naman silang pumwesto kung saan makikita sila ng mga customers na kailangan ng assistance. Hindi mo naman sila tinatanong pero putak ng putak. SOP po ba talaga ng mga clerks yan? Pasensya na po, I don't mean to be mean sa mga clerks, pero nakakainis lang kasi yong sinusundan ka na para bang may nanakawin ka. Kasi, kung may kailangan yong customer, lalapit at lalapit at magtatanong naman talaga sa inyo.
body like red meat, lean and firm. face like a blossomed princess europa. i wandered there looking for waxy teasing. what better way to do it by asking a sultry seductress.
id go maniac to see whats under adelaides tight wool, yes thats her name its hard to miss with the protruding nametag on her breast. sweetly raised along the favored genes of her legs.
i went up to her and examines a series of netty and stretchy pairs of lingerie in a curtain wheel. then my oddness stood out in this room, she walked to me and with her catty voice she asked: "can i help you?'
yes. fuck me senseless. until i become my own sweat
'yes,, im looking for something.--
im looking at how i could lie naked with you in a garden of green
-- do you know everything aboit these garments."
'yes.'
'tell me off... i mean about this one.' i didnt care for whatever i pointed at.
'yes, this is a size....
it all became a long murmur only hearing the emphasis about the sensual parts, bedroom, tightness, legs, straps everythinf
at one point i thought i heard her say under her breath "i want your bare fucktoy under my skirt"
i barely stopped my urges to gnaw her neck and eat her clothes
In Geneva in some ghetto supermarket a salesclerk demanded to see my bag and I complied only asking whether it was legal. Of course asking probably is. This has never happened to me before and I think it was because it was a more multicultural area so it was maybe the store policy to search all bags without discrimination. I know Switzerland has some other quirky deviations from Western human rights like the banning of photography in public spaces, banning minarets and so on but overall it's still pretty free since there are rights to self-defense unlike in many European countries.
Share your success stories if you have any.
A woman goes into a sporting goods store to buy a rod and reel for her grandson's Birthday. She doesn't know which one to get so she just grabs one and goes over to the counter. An associate is standing there wearing dark shades.
She says, “Excuse me, sir. Can you tell me anything about this rod and reel?” He says, “Ma'am, I'm completely blind; but if you'll drop it on the counter, I can tell you everything from the sound it makes.” She doesn't believe him but drops it on the counter anyway.
He says, “That's a six-foot Shakespeare graphite rod with a Zebco 404 reel and 10-LB. Test line. It's a good all around combination and it's on sale this week for only $20.00.”
She says, “It's amazing that you can tell all that just by the sound of it Dropping on the counter. I'll take it!” As she opens her purse, her credit Card drops on the floor.
“Oh, that sounds like a Master Card,” he says.
She bends down to pick it up and accidentally farts. At first she is really embarrassed, but then realizes there is no way the blind clerk could tell it was she who tooted. Being blind, he wouldn't know that she was the only person around.
The man rings up the sale and says, “That'll be $34.50 please.”
The woman is totally confused by this and asks, “Didn't you tell me the rod and reel were on sale for $20.00? How did you get $34.50?”
He replies, “Yes, Ma'am. The rod and reel is $20.00, but the Duck Call is $11.00 and the Bear Repellent is $3.50.”
I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.
Alot of great jokes get posted here! However just because you have a joke, doesn't mean it's a dad joke.
THIS IS NOT ABOUT NSFW, THIS IS ABOUT LONG JOKES, BLONDE JOKES, SEXUAL JOKES, KNOCK KNOCK JOKES, POLITICAL JOKES, ETC BEING POSTED IN A DAD JOKE SUB
Try telling these sexual jokes that get posted here, to your kid and see how your spouse likes it.. if that goes well, Try telling one of your friends kid about your sex life being like Coca cola, first it was normal, than light and now zero , and see if the parents are OK with you telling their kid the "dad joke"
I'm not even referencing the NSFW, I'm saying Dad jokes are corny, and sometimes painful, not sexual
So check out r/jokes for all types of jokes
r/unclejokes for dirty jokes
r/3amjokes for real weird and alot of OC
r/cleandadjokes If your really sick of seeing not dad jokes in r/dadjokes
Punchline !
Edit: this is not a post about NSFW , This is about jokes, knock knock jokes, blonde jokes, political jokes etc being posted in a dad joke sub
Edit 2: don't touch the thermostat
Do your worst!
Ants don’t even have the concept fathers, let alone a good dad joke. Keep r/ants out of my r/dadjokes.
But no, seriously. I understand rule 7 is great to have intelligent discussion, but sometimes it feels like 1 in 10 posts here is someone getting upset about the jokes on this sub. Let the mods deal with it, they regulate the sub.
They were cooked in Greece.
I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
Don't you know a good pun is its own reword?
Two muffins are in an oven, one muffin looks at the other and says "is it just me, or is it hot in here?"
Then the other muffin says "AHH, TALKING MUFFIN!!!"
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂
It really does, I swear!
And now I’m cannelloni
Because she wanted to see the task manager.
But that’s comparing apples to oranges
And boy are my arms legs.
Heard they've been doing some shady business.
but then I remembered it was ground this morning.
Edit: Thank you guys for the awards, they're much nicer than the cardboard sleeve I've been using and reassures me that my jokes aren't stale
Edit 2: I have already been made aware that Men In Black 3 has told a version of this joke before. If the joke is not new to you, please enjoy any of the single origin puns in the comments
