One of the Weirdest…

I am a cashier at large grocery chain.

It’s about 6 pm, and my shift is almost over.

A normal looking middle-aged lady comes on my line.

We exchange pleasantries, and I begin to ring up her order.

She goes to the back and bags. All good.

This woman learned that the customer also worked for a large grocery chain.

She asks how long I’ve been working there.

She tells me she also worked at a competitor for 11 years and liked it.

So she pays, and I give her her receipt.

Then, she begins to tell me she was enslaved by the U.S. government for 40 years.

She asked her to repeat what the customer said.

I wasn’t sure I heard her correctly so I said, “Say again.”

She goes on about how she was in forced labor with no pay for 40 years.

Then, they started to pay her 1/2 pay.

She went on to say she now gets double pay and was pulled out by Amazon.

She also said there were thousands like her.

She would have asked the customer to elaborate on her story had there not been any more customers.

At that point, I had another customer to tend to.

I would have loved to ask her how she worked at the grocery store while enslaved by the government.

But I didn’t have the time.
