We were at a popular local grocery chain that boasts that their workers take your groceries out for you. The whole concept makes me uncomfortable on the surface, but this really took the cake.

My aunt and I have a weird relationship. She and I take care of my grandma, I do the day-to-day stuff and when we need groceries or to go on an outing, my aunt takes care of it with me because she has a car and I don’t. We were just talking like normal and started checking out with a cashier who didn’t seem to have any issues. The bag boy, though, got super pissed off when she lamented getting plastic instead of paper bags, and his posture as we left the store was stiff and made me feel very unsafe, he was radiating something unpleasant.

He began loading the trunk and we got into the car. He began preaching, citing scripture at us. I don’t remember everything he said, but part of it was along the lines of “you cannot take one cent from a coin, you must take the whole coin.”

Now, I honestly don’t know what the issue was. Maybe he thought we were a lesbian couple? I’m gay, but my aunt isn’t, and also, she’s, you know, my aunt. She’s honestly kinda phobic and deeply Christian (my grandpa was a minister and she’s the child who stuck fast to that faith, I was only forced to attend church for the first 8 or so years of my life so I’m very not Christian) so she was really really offended that some dude would use having a captive audience as a means to spread whatever the hell that was.

I will be calling to complain. Even if I totally misread the situation and he wasn’t being judgemental, I don’t appreciate being preached at while getting food for my senile grandmother.

All I know is, I’m positive he wouldn’t have said anything if a man had been present with us.
