More crazy kids (wait kids are more well behaved than these "things" posing as people)

Here's one good impostor description to watch out for, or two, or three... oh just read!

Tall, 50's, grouch, mustache guy: "I don't care how you do it, just do it!"

Alrighty then. This guy wanted to sample salad on a plate and didn't specify salad bar or deli case salads. This was specifically in response to bunch of types of salads from our deli case, which I then suggested I could put into a paper box for him so that he could warm it up and not worry about a plastic container melting and/or having half a dozen containers, ya' know I get to use math sometimes, added the tare weight and reentering it and adding more food to the box, and so on.
NUT!

Other various kinds of customers:

The Samplers:

Piercing-city lady (in eyebrows, multiple in nose, both lobs and "bull ring" and lower lip stud, with no front teeth with a slurry and rough voice, badly bleached out hair, red eyes (not exactly "straight" if you know what I mean in street lingual). So, she samples the olives on the olive bar, then one or two items from the deli case and then one or both of the soups, too! And, she never buys a thing.

Vegan bum who samples sometimes four or more items from the deli case, as well as soups and olives, also never buys a thing. For the first time since i've been working, to my knowledge, he bought something on February 8, 2006! Plus, I saw him the same week at the Wedge Co-op buying stuff, too! What is happening to the world?


The Bargers:

This lady starts off with a sly gate and then ends up barging (that's right, not budding or budging the word originated from barge, as in on the river barge; I tried to convince my classmates in second grade about this, but they didn't believe me, so you must obey... wahhahahaha) her way in front of other customers. Before I have the chance to fully ask the first customer(s) what they'd like, she blurts out what she must have. How rude!

The Funky Hair Guys:

Sideburn guy (or mutton chop guy rather) number one had a crazy curly thing goin' on on his cheeks: |&| _ |&|, this was true 70's style with sweater and all, alas no matching glasses (maybe he had in those new funky glass contacts).

Jet back to the 1880's to meet the king of mutton chops (once again side burns in layman's terms). He had smile-enhancing ones that were shaped like triangles coming down to a point just to the edge of his lips, see rendering at right: |\ _ /| or at least something to that degree.
