What the hell, Tep? Didn't you just recently have a similarly shitty customer service experience at a car dealership?
Mmm. Wife soup. I must've done good.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
She followed me to the manager, told the manager that I was committing coupon fraud, grabbed the coupon from my hand and shoved it at the manager.
Yikes.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
"coupon fraud"?
seriously?
None of the decisions - issue , price or even if the store is going to take coupons is a cashier's choice. all the cashier can do is decide if they match, if the coupon is expired, and maybe question the legitimacy of the coupon.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

No, that was you.

That's weird. Why would she care so much?
Speaking of weird retail experiences. I went into an Office Max a couple of days ago to buy a 4GB flash drive that cost all of $12. The cashier asked if I wanted an extended warranty. I just said "no" instead of "are you fucking kidding me?". To the cashier's credit she didn't try to push the issue and quite possibly thought it was just as stupid as I did.

maybe question the reality of the coupon.
"Sorry, this is a Wishverse coupon."
"Sorry, we can't take this. See how Spock has a goatee?"

Ah, the collision of philosophy majors and the job market.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Around here, all the cash registers actually SCAN the coupon's barcode, so unless you've bothered to hack the grocery store database where the barcodes are kept and altered the price there... really, doesn't simply stealing credit card numbers sound a whole lot easier?

Okay, here's another math problem for you geniuses.
Given a microwave pasta meal that contains tiny pieces of pasta and tomato sauce, what is the chance that at least one piece of pasta will fall off the fork on its way to my mouth and hit three different places on me before it reaches the ground?
