So late tonight, a regular customer came through with her 6 (or so) year old daughter after swimming at the YMCA. I notice and point out a 2-inch wide, white spider sitting on the glass outside on her front passenger window.
"Oh, I hope it isn't inside," she says. Little girl is on alert.
Then mom rolls the window down. She said she was hoping to knock it off the car that way, but guess who decided to come on in and pay them a visit? :D
They're both pressing closer to my side of the car, the girl shrieks. I tell her to get her shoe and get ready to beat it to death if it comes near her, and give the mom a cup to do her own beating with before going to check the order, as they were waiting on fries to finish cooking. I return about three minutes later with the food ready.
"Did you find him?"
"We found him twice, it's catching him that's hard!"
I then pointed him out on the underside of the rear passenger door's handle. Cue the girl screaming and making a leap for the front seat, sandals flying while mom tries to swat it. She lost it again, and we hurried to get the food in the car before she could pull over into the parking lot. I then watched them both leap from the car, shake and pat themselves down before hunting the spider again.
I'll bet next time, she thinks it through when there's a spider on the window. If I hadn't had someone behind her by then, I would have gone ahead and caught it for them myself, since we were mostly dead at the time.
