When Average Workdays Take a Turn For the Weird

I worked in a section of a department store that had a sofa and a couple comfy chairs for customers to use.One day a rumpled old man came in and sat down on one of the chairs and fell asleep. (We thought that he may have been homeless so we didn’t want to disturb him.)

The funny thing was that every time after he fell asleep his cell phone would ring, but he didn’t answer it because he was asleep. He would wake up periodically but his phone never rang when he was awake; only when he was asleep. We thought that was kind of funny.

He sat there for hours. Finally his son showed up and said that he had been trying to find his father, who had wandered off. (It was he who was trying to call the old man.)

The son was angry because he said his father was a diabetic and could have died. (He blamed us instead of taking responsibility for losing his father at a mall!) Story credit: Reddit / CrosswordGuru
