Pre-takeoff checklist
So this guy's wife makes him go grocery shopping today on his day off. Apparently, she hasn't learned yet that this is a mistake. Returning home after spending $220, mostly on chips and Oreos, he notices he can't find any of the meat he bought. He calls the store to find out if he left it behind at the register and is told to bring the receipt in and they'll check the cameras to see where the missing bags might have gone. At the store the girl at the counter tells him to go get replacements for the missing items, which he does (I don't think they checked the "tapes"). With relief at not having to tell Wifey he lost the meat, he heads on his merry way home. When he gets back home and walks in the kitchen he sort of wonders "Gee, what are those two bags on the countertop?" Yup, it's the missing meat. Doh! Back to the store he goes. The same girl is at the counter. He admits his stupidity and pays for the meat.
Ok, boring story. The interesting part is the reaction of the girls working in the store. This was a monumental event (paying for something voluntarily, that is). Apparently they'll pass this tale along to their children, and their children's children.
Is this sort of thing really so rare today?
