Let me tell you why you are ridiculous....


(the title of this post can be credited to ms. bethany reese)

so, the store that i work at is in a hotel...that means we carry the usual things you might run out of or forget during your stay. All these items are stored behind the counter which is a little bit bigger than the space a bathtub would take up--the rest of the store is all clothing. Among the items behind the counter, we do carry cigarettes..but as you can imagine, it's not a very large selection. For those who don't smoke and have never sold cigarettes, the basics we carry are Marlboro Lights, Camel, Marlboro Reds and a Mentol Cig. Don't ask me why, but they all come in soft or hard pack--but we only carry hard pack. And most you can get in x-long 100s...again, don't ask me why there is a choice. With this brief cig education, you will find this story funny. This lady comes into the store, clearly seeing that we don't that the gigantic cigarette holder hanging from the ceiling that you would normally see in a convenience store, and asks, 'I'll take a pack of Virginia Slims Ultra Light Menthol 100's please.' Let me tell you why you are ridiculous.
