Crazy People

2005-01-29 at 11:17 p.m.

Today was Saturday. And in retail, that means super busy day. We get about 3 times the normal amount of people... and... 3 times the number of crazy people. We have crazy regualars. There's Mail-Order Bride guy, the Baby Sniffer, The Credit Card leaver, Judica Guy, and Head Phones Crazy Nut Person.

Seriously. Except for the credit card leaver, this is what they're called.

Today we had the Head Phones Crazy Nut Person, Mail-Order Bride guy, and the Credit Card leaver in the store.

Head Phones Crazy Nut Person is a young guy who... well.... he's VERY into religon. Takes it very seriously. And, he won't talk to married women. At all. He told one of my coworkers that he couldn't ask her a question because he couldn't ask her husband permission to speak with her. Honestly, I thought she was going to deck him. (This is the woman who has a subscription to Bitch magazine and no problem talking about her period at full volume.) She didn't take it well.

Credit Card leaver forgets her credit card and leaves it in the store at least half the times she comes in. She visits every week. She's also got a bad habit of impulse buying things, and then returning them later. She usually has lipstick around her lips (but not on them). and is one of the nicest people you'll ever meet. Ever. But again, a wee bit kooky.

Mail-Order Bride Guy... well, I'm sure you can guess how he got his name. But anyway, he's most well known for coming in in a completly pink outfit. And I mean completely. He wore pink windpants with a pink jacket, a matching pink t-shirt, pink sneakers and pink laces. Socks? Brown.
And he wanted me to tell him how he looked. He is extremely smart, tenure as a professor at some local university. And spends inoordinate amounts of time in the technology section of our store. In pink.
