This, but specifically when you’re holding the card reader out for them and they WONT LET GO OF THEIR CARD.

And you make deliberate eye contact with them as they repeatedly *can't get it in*

I always said “go ahead and put it in” and this middle aged man did it a little to aggressively and moaned as he did it and made eye contact with me throughout the whole thing and smirked and I HATED IT

I had a guy say his card was sticky and he might not be able to get it out with a really creepy smile so I just told him worst case I’ll be happy to cut it out (as I held the big ass knife for cutting display sandwiches). Suddenly his card had no issues.

I love this. Whenever a customer tries to pull anything like that I’ll think of you

So... If the card gets denied, does that mean it’s “Card” Dysfunction?? 🤣😂🤣😂

My favorite is, “do you want your cookie warmed?”

I’ve just been saying “insert the chip” and I don’t think there’s any way to turn that weird... right?
