Yesterday afternoon before the pre-movie incident, I had a baby shower to go to. When I get there my best friend asks if I'll go to CVS to buy her a pack of napkins - of course I will! So I get to CVS- which is right around the corner- I get the napkins, and then I head to the front.
There's a lady that is stocking shelves upon shelves with Valentine's Day candy, and I wait there and look around, she eventually sees me after a few minutes and says "I'll be right there." So she finishes stocking the shelf she was working on, grabs a few extra bags of M&M's and walks away.
I'm thinking "Hellooooooo, live person here!!! Where's the customer service? I'm ONE person waiting to be checked out, and I'm fairly positive those bags of M&M's can wait the 2.5 minutes it will take me to pay for my order and leave."
So she finally comes back and scans my card, scans the napkins, hits total. I swipe my card, select credit, end of story. She asks if I would like a bag. "No thanks." As we are waiting the 10 seconds between when the transaction completes and when the register spits out my receipt, she starts scratching her nose. With the tip of her finger, but it's not a super quick motion. It's like she's searching the edge of her nostril with the pointer finger of her left hand.
Finally after what seemed like 10 minutes of me watching her scratch her nose, my receipt is ready. She grabs it with her right hand (whew!) and then transfers it into her left hand (ew!), then hands it to me.
I gingerly grab the receipt by the corner with the tips of my fingers as I'm already moving away from the counter towards the exit. I'm grabbing it carefully - although I know its just a formality, I mean it's not like there's anything...
What the ...
Is that a booger on my receipt?!?!?!?!?
Did this lady really just pick her nose in front of me, wipe her booger on my receipt and then proceeded to HAND me the receipt?????
At this point when the realization hits me I'm already outside, where I think I'm in shock, because I look down at the receipt like an idiot. Finally I drop it from my hands and get to my car, get to the baby shower, where my first stop was the bathroom to wash my hands.
I plan on writing CVS about this incident, just because I want to know how they will reply. I MAY just let you read the email once it's ready...
