I don't envy your job, Mrs. and Mr. Grocery Checkout Person. I'm sure your friendly veneer masks a great desire to be elsewhere. And I appreciate that you're friendly, even if it's just part of your job. But I don't know what I'm supposed to do when you ask "So what do you have planned for the rest of the day?" I know you're probably told to ask that, but it sends me into a stressful spiral when I'm supposed to be grocery shopping and forgetting about the rest of my day for a while. So, I end up making something up, something slightly more glamours than going to the hospital for tests or doing chores around the house. Thank you Mrs. and Mr. Grocery Checkout Person at New Seasons and WholeFoods.
