Check Out Chat

Friday afternoon was my first day back at Trader Joe's, the oh so spirited grocery store where I work part time. A woman with white hair, red lips, and dressed to the nines came through my line. I greeted her like any other customer saying:

"Hi! How are you today?"

She replied:

"Well, I'm happy, healthy, and still hopelessly in love."

I stopped scanning a bag of baby carrots in that moment, smiled, looked up at her and said:

"And what more could you ask for?"

She smiled back: "Exactly."

Now I remember why I love working at this store.
