I worked as a cashier at a grocery store in college. People (usually older people with nothing better to do) fancied themselves interesting or comedians and would always try to strike up conversations or tell the same joke I just heard 10 other boomers tell me the same shift.

>thing doesn't scan right away
"guess it's FREE heh heh heh"

Stuff like that. I think a lot of them were self absorbed but lonely. They wanted someone to smile, nod along, and pretend to laugh at their remarks. That was usually it. Sometimes they would linger around after paying and not take the social hints that everyone wants them to shut the fuck up and move along. I'd just start bagging the next person's groceries and keep listening, eventually they'd wrap it up and leave.

I used to to have no friends so I would stop after work every day at the Wawa I used to work out and talk to my former coworkers while drinking rum out of a plastic cup. I’d hang out there for hours.

I know it's hard for you guys to understand this, but there's a concept called "social cues" that indicate to me when I make my comment that the cashier is seizing the chance to make small talk because the only people they ever get to do it with is a boomer going "guess it's free hehehe" and this is a breath of fresh air

Most people simply understand the dynamic between customer and employee. The employee is REQUIRED to be friendly to you. The most polite thing a customer can do is to not take advantage of this. You take advantage of it and get to feel the fantasy of being popular when they smile to you and respond to your small talk. Here's a challenge: next time you go out, make no small talk. I think you'll be surprised by how little the cashiers you meet initiate it beyond a simple "how are you?"

I know this is harsh but I think I need to be a little firm after your frequent assertions that everyone else is autistic.

For me, it's the McChicken. The best fast food sandwich. I even ask for extra McChicken sauce packets and the staff is so friendly and more than willing to oblige.

One time I asked for McChicken sauce packets and they gave me three. I said, "Wow, three for free!" and the nice friendly McDonald's worker laughed and said, "I'm going to call you 3-for-free!".

Now the staff greets me with "hey it's 3-for-free!" and ALWAYS give me three packets. It's such a fun and cool atmosphere at my local McDonald's restaurant, I go there at least 3 times a week for lunch and a large iced coffee with milk instead of cream, 1-2 times for breakfast on the weekend, and maybe once for dinner when I'm in a rush but want a great meal that is affordable, fast, and can match my daily nutritional needs.

I even dip my fries in McChicken sauce, it's delicious! What a great restaurant!
