It could just be a bad joke.

Indeed. Try talking to a few hundred people each day whilst keeping the banter fun and interesting.

Someone in this doesn't understand how being a cashier works.

[–] Tiger666@lemmy.ca 13 points 2 months ago

And it's not the cashier.

Definitely just a dumb joke that got taken a bit too literally.

Says more about the poster that (if it's real) should have just said "heh yeah" and left. If it's not real, then wtf is their life where they need to come up with B's like this? Cashiers have it hard enough

Im going on a limb and guessing this question was never asked directly to the cashier.

Someone really needs to work on their material though. They’re not going to leave their day job any time soon.

[–] callouscomic@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 months ago

You criticize their "material" by yourself regurgitating tired slop from decades past?

Naïve teenager or bad relationship dynamic?

The world may never know

Weird flirting would have been my guess

Or even just a bad attempt at small talk

I was thinking a joke, those jobs get so boring

I used to ask "what did you do?" when there was a guy just buying a bouquet. Got a few chuckles.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago (2 children)

That's why I always ask if it's free when something doesn't scan the first time

I think it was more of a bad flirting attempt

[–] Pacattack57@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

I’ll take things that never happened for $500 Alex

He's dating a jealous psychopath.
