Customer: But - Cashier: Sir, there are people behind you waiting. Customer: Oh, all right. (He pays the money.) Cashier: Next! Let's go! Let's go! Customer: Can I use this on my hardwood floor? Cashier: Seven thirty-seven. Customer: But you haven't answered - Cashier: I'm not a janitor. I am a cashier. Seven thirty-seven. (Frowning, she reaches into her purse and pays.) Cashier: Come on! Come on! Move it along now! Customer: Can I return this item here? Cashier: That would be customer service, sir. This is the checkout. Customer: I know but - Cashier: (Pointing) Customer service. That way. (The customer gets the message and leaves.) Next! Keep it moving! Customer: How are you? Cashier: Twenty-two forty-five. Customer: (While paying) You sure are busy in here.
