There was a bit of confusion while shopping this morning. When I was ready to pay for my groceries, the cashier said, "Strip down facing me."  Making a mental note to complain to my congressman about Homeland Security running amok, I did just as she had instructed.

When the hysterical shrieking and alarms finally subsided, I found out that she was referring to how I should run my debit card through the reader. They need to make their instructions to us seniors a little clearer!

 

I have been asked to shop elsewhere in the future.

She had momentarily lost the ability to speak throught the tears of laughter....  That in itself made the shopping trip worth while! Bucky

I'm surprised she didn't run out of the store with you.

Did she manage to get in a comment about your sheepish drawers? Or call you "Shorty"?
