Red Shirt And Khakis Strikes Back
I made the mistake of wearing khakis and a red shirt into Target once. I got asked SO many questions, but just laughed it off.
One lady though…I was looking at makeup and this lady with her small child came running up to me. She asked where the bathrooms were and I told her I had no idea.
She went from O to 100 and started screaming her child was about to have an accident, so I better get on my radio and figure it out.
I said, “I don’t work here and frankly I don’t give a darn about your kid.” She went stomping off, so I went to grab groceries.
As I’m wheeling up to pay, the lady taps on my shoulder and says gleefully, “Remember me? YOU’RE GETTING FIRED!” I look over to the manager who looks at me and says “I don’t recognize you.
Do you work here?”
When I said no, he looked really exhausted and said, “I’m sorry ma’am, enjoy your day.” The crazy lady was still insisting he “fire” me as I was leaving.
Poor guy. I’ve never made that fashion mistake again.
