I am having a hard day, but it’s no one’s problem but my own, so I am grinning through it and not letting it affect my work as a checkout operator.
A man and his little daughter are checking out and seem to be in the middle of a conversation.
Daughter: “So, I can grow up to be anything I want?”
Customer: “That’s right. If you work hard at school, you could be a doctor or an astronaut! No job is too good for my little girl!”
The daughter sees me, and I smile over at her.
Daughter: Talking to her dad but looking at me “I want to do what this lady does! She always helps us with the ice cream!”
The dad looks over at me and smiles kindly.
Customer: Talking to his daughter, but also looking at me “Like I said, no job is too good for my little girl.”
They both smiled at me, and the little girl excitedly asked me lots of cute questions and observations about my job, such as, “You get to press ALL the buttons?”
