sigh... ignorant people make me sad
props to tina for the layout :Dyeah... today was such a nice day. weather was perfect; not a cloud in the sky. hot enough to want ice cream, but cool enough to not bathe in sweat. AND I WAS INDOORS WORKING BEHIND A REGISTER, FML. anyways. today there was an old lady who took like 20 mins to buy a pack of cigs, and a can of tuna. TWENTY. 2-0. *plop* onto the counter, everything going smooth, then suddenly she says she'll pay by debit. debit? not a problem... swipe: check enter amount: check. wait for pin entry: check. processing... "request declined: insufficient funds" *insert short wtf moment here* ... so i gave her card back to her and simply said that her account didnt have enough money. what does she do? gives the same card back to me and tells me to do it again. i started to explain to her that there was no money, when suddenly she cuts me off by demanding that she'll use her other account. puzzled and annoyed at the negative tone of her voice, i swipe, enter amount, blah blah blah. then what do you know. it WORKED. of course i realized at that moment what had happened. as everyone knows, there is 1 card per account. it just so happens that the lady had selected the wrong type of account on the pinpad, so she technically didnt have a "second" account as she claimed. knowing this, i had to sit through her rant about young kids thinking that the older generation were stupid and helpless. so after her "i told you so" conclusion, i shoot her a dirty look and she leaves with a *hmph*. she could have saved me the bad mood by admitting she made a mistake and selected the wrong account. luckily, the rest of the day went pretty good, except for some dude who put like 6 cans of juice, a bottle of water, a bottle of pop, a lighter, a bottle of ginseng, another bottle of pop, and a half-smoked cigarette on the counter. after 2 mins of thrifting through his pockets, he says "ill brb with my card", only to never show up again. just a minor annoyance, however.
