My cute husband, Mr. Goff, is very fun and friendly- two of my favorite things about him! He is especially easy to talk to and as pleasant as can be, so when we encountered a less than peppy cashier during a family adventure to our local Sam's Club...
Peppy Cashier, we'll call her "Joy"/ "Lady J" says: (she actually says nothing)
Mr. Goff: "How are you doing tonight?"
Lady J: (silence)
Mr. Goff: "We'll I'm doing good!"
Lady J: (silence)
Mr.Goff: "Are you having a good night?"
Lady J: "uuhhh..."(mumbled very quietly)
Mr. Goff: "I'm having a good night!"
Lady J: (silence)
Mr. Goff: "So, anything exciting happen around here tonight?"
Lady J: (silence)
Lady J: "Your total comes to $$"
Mr. Goff: "Okay!!"
Lady J: (silence)
(At this point the card is swiped and I am totally hoping for the machine to ask if our cashier was friendly today, but no such luck...)
Mr. Goff: "You have a great night!!"
Lady J: (silence)
Mr. Goff: "I know I'm going to have a great night!!"
Lady J: (absolutely nothing)
**Even though Lady J was having an "introspective" night (ah, sure), I'll bet she'd be a total hoot at a BBQ or some other celebratory function-maybe not. Actually, she would rock at the "quiet game" or maybe even a staring contest, don't even get me started with 20 questions, but probably not charades...
Wherever you are, Lady J, I hope you are doing good and that you do have a super great night!!
