| So I went to stay in the US and started getting used to the American way of life... After a few months of staying there, I thought I should have a personal handgun as well. Yesterday I got my permit to carry a concealed weapon. So, today I went over to the local Gun shop to get a 9mm handgun for home/personal protection. When I was ready to pay for the pistol and ammo, the cashier said, "Strip down, facing me." I made her repeat what she had just said, because I thought I hadn't heard it right the first time. She duly repeated the line. Making a mental note to complain to the government about gun control wackos running amok, I did just as she had instructed. When the hysterical shrieking and alarms finally subsided, I found out she was referring to how I should place my credit card in the card reader. As a senior citizen, I do not get flustered often, but this time it took me a while to get my pants back on. I've been asked to shop elsewhere in the future. They need to make their instructions to seniors a little more clear. . And I just need to wear underwear more often. |
