I was in the store this afternoon. I was wearing a baseball cap that says "CHILE" on it. Here is the conversation I had with the cashier:
Cashier: (pointing to my hat) Did you serve your mission in Chile?
Me: Ha ha...nope.
Cashier: Did your son serve there?
Me: No, I just like the hat.
Cashier: Have you ever been there?
Me: No...but my best friend is from there.
Cashier: Your wife?
Me: No...it's my friend. (sounding irritated)
Cashier: Well, I served in Paris, France.
Me: That's nice.
Cashier: Did you serve a mission?
Me: (VERY IRRITATED AT THIS POINT) Yes, I went to Ohio.
Cashier: Didn't you just love it?
Me: (PISSED) Frankly no.
Cashier: Really? Why not?
Me: Many reasons. I don't really want to talk about it.
Cashier: Well, I loved my mission. I wish I could go again.
Me: Okay
Cashier: Well, maybe you can go to Chile one day.
Me: (through clenched teeth) I would love it.
Cashier: Maybe your friend will take you.
Me: Yeah, I guess.
Cashier: How long have you known this friend?
Me: A long time.
Cashier: How did you meet him?
Me: A friend introduced us.
Cashier: Does he speak English?
Me: Yes he does.
Cashier: Well I speak French.
Me: Okay
Cashier: What's his name?
Me: (Ready to scream at this point) His name is M------, and he is my boyfriend. What else would you like to know?
The cashier did not say another word to me and the customer behind me laughed out loud. I know it was rude, but man I get sick of stuff like that.
