I made a mistake one day that I kept doing for three days because a formula was off, making it look like we completed a million+ requests instead of a few thousand. Something I should have easily spotted, but if anyone had looked at the report, you would think they would point out that we are 859% over goal.

Coworker #1: "She’s notorious. Tries on a bunch of shoes, never buys anything."
I laugh nervously and head back out.
The woman tries on a pair. Then another. And another. She starts building a pile.

Coworker: "I was driving on the motorway and there was this massive piece of lumber lying across the road! I had to steer like Senna!"

The customer screams something unintelligible, then throws a muffin at my head.
It bounces off me harmlessly, and I burst out laughing.
She gets even angrier and chucks her chips at me.

Father: "You need to shave your legs."
Me: "Why?"
Father: "Because it's what you're supposed to do! Men don't like it!"
Me: "Okay, I'll start shaving when you do then."
