Please tell me I'm not the only one who thinks this was weird....
I stopped at the store on my way home from work today (woohoo for a half day), and as I was waiting in line my son tried to boost himself up using the cart in front of us, so I told him to stop. He started to cry so I gave him a little hug and continued to wait my turn. I guess the cashier couldn't handle the tears because she started to rip open the bag of chips I just bought. Like she actually popped the bag open before I could say no. And then tried to hand it to my son to help himself. Boundaries anyone?
What the hell? That has to be one the weirdest things I heard about cashiers or clerks do. I mean no one likes when a child is sad but if it is not yours you don't give it things?
What did you do? I would not of been very happy, I would not of yelled but I would of asked for another bag for sure.

That is so weird. Was he crying for chips? I don't know why she would assume chips would stop his crying. I would have asked her to go get me an unopened bag of chips. ETA: And tell a manager what happened.

What??? I would have yelled. What if he had a food allergy to something in the chips? I would have said "what the hell do you think you're doing?" and asked for a manager.
I just gave her a WTF look and left. I didn't even think to ask for a new bag Sarafuss No, he wasn't crying for the chips. He just didn't like being told to stop, which is why I was ignoring the tears. The cashier was trying to make him feel better I guess.

I definitely would HAVE charged her ass for those chips.
Sarafuss No, he wasn't crying for the chips. He just didn't like being told to stop, which is why I was ignoring the tears. The cashier was trying to make him feel better I guess.
