Man, at the pizza and sub shop, we sure do get the crazy old ladies. Around this time of year, about 10,000 people come into town for the summer to visit the world famous Chautauqua Institution . Now, rates on houses and hotels are crazy expensive at this place (condos cost hundreds of thousands for about a 1,000 square footer), so needless to say, it brings in some really rich people. Anyways, about this time of year, things in our town get abnormal. At work you can definitely see this. I saw a prime example tonight. A lady from this place came in and apparently wanted some pizza. She was an older lady, who was at least 65, and was dressed up real nice. I was making subs, but the pizza shop is right next to me, so she asked me if anyone was waiting on the pizza counter. Now, normally, I'd help her out, but I had two people in line. So, I went out back, found the girl that was in pizza, saw that she was making an order of 75 wings, so I went back up front to tell the lady she'd be right up (the wings were just about done). So, I'm making my sub, about a minute after I tell this lady, and all of a sudden, the lady starts walking behind our counter. I'm flabbergasted (yes, flabbergasted), and all I could do was stare at what happens next. The lady walks behind the counter, walks up to a pizza that was sitting out, rips a slice of pepperoni from the pizza, shoves it in a box, then proceeds to walk out of the store with it. I was gonna say something, but I was so shocked that I couldn't. I asked the guy to hold a second and called the store manager and told him what happened. He was angry, but we couldn't do anything about it. If she comes back, though, she'll get kicked out of the store. Anyways, it's weird how I've noticed that it always seems to be old women puling these kinds of stunts. One old woman has been caught multiple times stuffing chicken wings in her purse, without paying for them. (We have a self-serve wing bar) I don't know. What gives?
I am very offended by this. You sir have just caused me a great deal of pain tonight. I hope you are happy.
"Come on! "I'm an old man. I'm confused! I thought I paid for it. What's my name? Will you take me home?"
