A moment at Publix.

All right let me set up the seen. It is 930 at night i have just worked eight hours and i have one and a half hours left. I just finished working a 300 piece truck. Now i have to block my section, o joy. now im not sure if you know this or not put Publix closes at 10pm i tell you that because not many people know that, i guess they think it is Walmart.
Ok lets get started. The time now is 950 i am blocking the ice cream section. Around the corner comes a mother and her i guess 8 or 9 year old daughter. the mother is looking for a certain ice cream so she is studying the the labels. while her daughter is grabbing everything in the cooler and showing her mom is this the one. which brings asmile to my face until i realize she is not putting it back where she found it. i just finished that section i say to myself, i am ready to go home. so ten minutes later and 23 ice cream flavors out of place. she asks me if we have what she is looking for. now since i just worked the truck i know what i have in the back and that is not one of the items. so i tell her we are all out that item was not on the truck today. so she says could you check in the back for me. so again i think to myself, Is she serious does she not listen? now i am on my way to the back to look for something not there beause that is good customer service. All the way to the back i am mumbling i told you i dont have any back her your daughter just made me stay here longer and you dont need this ice cream. i was being so hateful what would God say about my behavior, so i pray for a minute get my composure and go back out to tell her there is no chocolate trinity, and guess what this woman is gone. AAAHHHH!!!!!
thanks for listening

You should have asked her if she would be there when you got back...then again maybe God spared her from you growing rage...then again maybe God told her she didn't need the ice cream...wait...why are you out of "chocalate trinity" anyways???!!!
