I often engage in conversation with the customers. Sometimes out of genuine interest, some strictly for entertainment purposes, and some I walk into blindly. Today was a blind day.
I was reading the newspaper and came across an article about a man who was fatally shot when he drew a weapon on police officers in Vallejo. I have always felt that if a police officer orders you to drop your weapon then it is probably a good idea to drop your weapon. A piece of advice from the crazy clerk.
Anyway, I make this comment to my coworker and a customer at the counter takes the chance to engage me in some of that blind conversation that I mentioned earlier. The following is the exact exchange. Nothing has been changed to protect the stupid.
Customer: Have you ever been fatally shot?
Me: Uh, no. I've never been fatally shot.
Customer: Well, if it ever happens you may change your opinion.
Yes, that is what he told me. So if I am ever FATALLY shot, I will be sure to let everyone know if my opinion changed or not. Let's hope that never happens though. With my luck I may end up dead.
