Insult or Injury?

So I'm standing at my register today when a customer approachs me.

"Hi, I have a favor to ask...there's nobody over in underware so i hope you can help me?"

"I'm sorry about that" I say, "what can I do for you?"

" I need some underware and I dont know what size I wear..."

I'm thinking at this point he needs a tape measure, so I reach into the drawer as he continues. Insted he turns around, pulls up his shirt, reaches into the back of his pants and pulls the back of his undeware up.

I'm stunned

I'm now staring down the back of this man's ass..and i mean, the whole thing

However, being the professional that I am, I gently reach down and look at the lable of his 2xist underware and inform him that he's a Large.

He thanks me, I ask him if there's anyhting else he needs and he trots off in the direction of the undweware aisle. Fine, the less of his naked behind I see the better. Since he stated that there's nobody over there, I assume that he will return to me with his purchase since I have gone the extra mile.

5 minutes later, I look across the department and low and behold, he has gone to a different register to check out with his purchase.

Yes indeed, not only did i have to reach into his pants, as distasteful as that was, but someone else got the sale.

I just keep telling myself, it's only retail.
