Me: Hi, how are you today?
Lady with shampoo: Ugh. I woke up this morning to discover that my daughter had put yellow food coloring in our shampoo last night. Apparently she thought it would dye her hair blonde.
Me: Wow. How old is she?
Lady with shampoo: Old enough to know better. She's almost twelve.
Me: I'm sorry.
Apart from the obvious, and from being impressed that Shampoo Lady made it through the store with just one item, this incident from yesterday sticks in my mind as just another example of the kind of hilarity I deal with most days.

Introduction
Welcome!
The idea for this blog has sprung from a list I created about three and a half years ago, entitled "Ways to Irritate a (Walmart) Cashier."
My thought in creating this blog is to share some of the highs (and lows) of working as a cashier. A place to vent about and muse on the eccentricities of my job, and to provide comic relief for others who also have jobs that aren't considered the most glamorous, but that can still be *ahem* learning experiences.
Let the commiserating begin!
