Retail
Atlanta, GA
I was working as a cashier at a retail store during one very rainy summer. When I finished ringing up a customer, I would always ask if there was anything else I could do for them. A lot of customers, thinking they were clever and original, would ask me to stop the rain. I would look out the window, snap my fingers, and then look annoyed and apologetic when the rain didn’t stop, and it made the customers smile.
One day it was raining extra hard and a customer asked me to stop the rain. I looked out and snapped my fingers at the sky and, by pure coincidence, the rain immediately stopped and within about ten seconds the sun began to shine brightly.
I was as astonished as anyone but I managed to keep a straight face, turned back to the customer and asked, “Is there anything *else* I can do for you?”
She just backed away slowly, gripping her purse, staring at me with eyes like saucers, and then turned and fled.
