Crappy Birthday Surprise
On my 22nd birthday, I was working at a bookstore in the King of Prussia Mall. My college girlfriend of 4 years had broken up with me earlier that night.
It was around 7-8 pm on a busy weekend night when I noticed a pretty awful smell. I glanced over at my manager working the other register and could tell he smelled it too, but we continued to power through a line of antsy customers.
Once we cleared the line a woman came up to me red-faced and laughing in shock and embarrassment. She said she had walked into one of the aisles to find a girl about 8 years old taking a crap on the floor.
I looked over at the manager who clearly had heard as well and said, “Dave, you can go ahead and fire me, but I’m not cleaning that up.”
