I Have A Pleasant Day but…

Today, I considered my day as pleasant but I don’t know if the scenario at the convenience store spoiled my mood but one thing is it makes me to think. It’s not busy and the payment counter was empty with people which I like most when paying. I’m going to pay my small purchases but suddenly there was a man who dropped his purchases at the counter before me so his items were punched at the register first but he left to get more items. It’s not right to make other customers to wait and if he’s not done yet with his shopping, it’s appropriate to put it in a cart and do not bother other customers to wait. The cashier then asked the person if he has a customer card (use to earn points from purchases) so that she can continue the transaction as it was already entered in the register. The man searched his wallet stuffed with other cards which I did not bother to look what are those. Finally, he handed the card to the cashier and told her to use the points earned if there’s any and would just pay the balance. The cashier replied back that it has only one point which made the customer laughed with a meaningful tone. He then pulled a bundle of money is his loose pocket containing the crisp bills of 1000Php and took two of it and handed it to the cashier. Wow! That was too much under my humble interpretation. There’s no way we can dictate or impose our rules to other people on what they want or going to do but I think that it was an excessive way of showing off. There are many instances that I witnessed similar scenes from this kind of people. What would be in your mind if you witnessed the same? Photo Credit: pixabay.com

The cashier should have made him wait.. I wouldn't let this spoil my mood though it might annoy me a bit at that moment.

What annoys me is the too much display of his cash.

That cashier is at fault also for making you wait. That man sounds arrogant and selfish. He should have let you go ahead of him.

I smell arrogance because of displaying his bundled cash in front of us Ms. Dianne.

If someone does this here, the cashier puts the ticket in "waiting" and she serves the others in line.

That's why the cashier asked him to pay or else it cause delay as it was already in the register. Maybe it could be put on hold but I don't know how it works but that's what the cashier did.

And not just that. What makes me to wonder was when he displayed all that stuff in his pocket. Is he bragging that he has plenty of cash?
