I bet that lady was old and lonely

[40ozslurpee]

I hate it when old people tell me their life stories when they're asking questions or ordering stuff.

Me: may I take your order?
Old lady: Well Johnny who's sittin over there wants a hamburger but he don't want no pickles, he don't like pickles, don't put no pickles on it, ya hear? Johnny don't like pickles. And for my grandson Joe, he's sitting beside Johnny, he wants a hamburger too with cheese on it and he wants pickles because he's not like Johnny, Joe loves his pickles, and for my daughter Annette....

the second day I answered phones for the library, this lady that called in to check up on what she had due started into a "well, my husband died in 1999, and..." *cue lonely person story that went on for 5 minutes* No one else called, so I never had a reason to cut her off :-(
