Zombie Fish

Nov 20, 2008 22:32

So, today at work, all was normal. People were nice, people were stupid and people were ass holes. But, one thing stood out today and it took me all night to calm down from the scare. XD Which is kinda sad. Anyway, people can buy 'live' fish from our seafood department. Now, in the case of the actual fish and not the crap or lobster, we sell tilipia, tasty little things. Now, there was this nice, little asian girl who was buying some lettuce, a couple other things and the fish. Now, the fish was dead. Big gash in his belly and blood in the bag, whole works. But, while I'm processing this other guy's credit card, the fish starts FLOPPING. And like, serious, out of water, get back in sort of flops. It nearly bounced off the counter. So I jump a foot, my heart races and I stare at the zombie fish. The girl on the other hand, screams, which is mildly amusing since the fish stops it's thrashing and is nice and calm and dead again. For a minute. Then the Demon fish starts flopping again until it fiiinally peters out and it stops.

The girl buys her fish and leaves and all is well in the realm of the cashier.

Until about an hour and a half later, when some guys are buying flats of cola. Now, I scan it and the guy puts it down but there's this muffled bang sound. We're all like, wtf? And can't find it, until cola starts pooling on the floor and he picks the flat up again. On the side, one of the cans is just BURST right open, it's side torn asunder like it had a little blast of black powder or something. And the strange thing was, it was the top flat, not the bottom one that burst. Weird, eh?

Anyway, that's the high lights of my day today XD. I had to put a journal up, if only because of the demon zombie fish.
