Feeling old yet?

Had an interesting interaction with a cashier today.

This young man in his 20s was ringing people up. His voice and mannerisms were basically like Napoleon Dynamite.

In front of me, the customer said “thank you, have a good day” and he said back “that would be impossible, but you have a good day ma’am.” I was only half paying attention so I assumed I misheard.

He then rang my products up as I focused on packing my bags. I pay and say basically “thanks, have a good day”. He says, “that would be impossible ma’am, but you have a good day.”

I paused, hearing the repeated statement. He started scanning the next customer’s items. Part of me wanted to ask why it’s impossible to have a nice day. It’s so specific. But doing so would interrupt his focus on the next customer. I took my bags, walked out, and looked back a couple times.

In hindsight, I wish I’d asked. That would be more important than risking the next customer’s checkout time by a couple minutes.

Next time I’m at the supermarket, I’m going to do a scan of the cashiers to see if he’s among them.

Am I the only one that reverse-sears Broccoli?
