17. Was working the register at my mom’s business when some guy came in and started bragging about how many slip and fall suits he has in progress. I was like, “Please, very carefully, GTFO.”

18. A guy smoking right next to the gas pumps. As a 16 year old it felt weird to tell a man three times me ages if he wanted to kill himself that would be okay, but don’t take my customers and me with him. There is more to the story but that’s the GTFO part.

Nearly, but no actually incident had occurred. It was a busy Saturday, people are starting to stare. I’m trying to gather my wits, thinking how best to handle it, when my manager came flying in from nowhere. She just yells, “Either come in here and shop like people or go outside with the rest of the animals!” One left, one stayed.
