I assure you, the cashier will not remember you even exist after you leave the store.

I remember like one customer from working retail

They were a thief and the cops were involved

I remember they were a woman and that's

That's it

I mostly remember the cops lmfao

There was also some group with like 5 carts packed with food cause they were stocking a ship for travel, a single full cart was unusual. I don't remember them though, just the 5 full carts!

I promise you, with full certainty, that I remember any break in the monotony of boring customers.

Always wear full disguise, its the only way.

As soon as you walk out of that store the cashier is relaying this news on social media to their 1m+ followers. Your life is over. You need to change your name and leave the country NOW. You CANNOT sleep tonight! You MUST replay this interaction over and over as if you could travel back in time and fix it.

Dont tell them that, you're supposed to say the cashier will fall asleep laughing at you.

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 week ago

be the kind of customer the cashier remembers because you're consistently pleasant to deal with

[–] TriflingToad@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

can confirm. The only customer I remember is an Irish guy who made jokes about his ex wife in an Irish accent. Funniest shit ever

I also have ADHD and cant remember my childhood at all really so I might be different than others lol

Since when is Imodium embarrassing? Everybody gets diarrhea at some point.

[–] Rekorse@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Imodium is essentially an opiate if taken in large doses, although its awful for your heart. Addicts tend to use it when they can't find opiates, although its not very widely known. The imodium company knows however, and thats why they only sell in blister packs now which are hard to collect enough pills from.

Anyways, thats why some places check ID for imodium, and why some people might be embarrassed other than just have the squirts.

[–] EfficientEffigy@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Diarrhea buddies!

Abandon the register and use another. Doesn't work if the item is problematic (age-restricted or incorrect weight in system) but worth a shot if there's few people around.

age-restricted or incorrect weight in system

Those are the ones if they're small enough take the risk and go for five finger discount.

!shoplifting@slrpnk.net for more info on that.

Not worth it unless you are an addict in withdrawal.

Abandon the register and go back into the store like you forgot to get something else, then try again at a different one.
