Today has not been a good day. I know everyone is sad over the Colorado shooting. So too cheer us up a bit post your funny stories you find online (or happened too you). Only rule is you have too post a link too the original story, give authors credit.

(I am working the overnight shift at a gas station when a young woman approaches and asks for a pack of cigarettes. She looks a bit young, so I ask for an ID. I glance at it and see that she is indeed old enough, but there is something just a bit off about the ID. We?re instructed to verify some information when we?re not sure if an ID is real or not.)
Employee: "Okay, what?s your date of birth?"
Customer: *correctly states the DOB on the id*
Employee: "Good, what street do you live on?'
Customer: "Washington."
Employee: "So far, so good. One last question. What class did we have together our freshman year?"
Customer: "Uh?"
Employee: "Nice try. I can?t accept this ID. Say hi to your sister for me, though."
Story 2
I know that it is very rare too tip a cashier, but this one really earned it.

(I'm working as a seasonal cashier at a big name retail chain. A mother and her whining 4-year-old come up to my register. The child is upset because the mother won?t buy him a specific toy.)
Mother: "I told you, Santa will bring it to you on Christmas."
Kid: "But I want it now!"
Mother: "Keep whining, and you won?t get it at all."
Kid: "Nuh-uh! Santa knows I?ve been a good boy!"
(The kid?s whining begins to irritate me, so some I do some quick thinking.)
Employee: *to the kid* "Are you sure? You see that up there?"
(I point to one of our store?s eye-in-the-sky security cameras.)
Kid: "What about it?"
Employee: "Well, that?s how Santa sees all the little boys and girls in the world. That?s how he knows if you?ve been naughty or nice."
(The kid stops crying and doesn?t say a word for the rest of the transaction.)
Mother: *leans in, whispering* ?Thank you so much!? *slips me a $20 and leaves*
