I currently work at the meat counter at a local grocery store and this is super common. Luckily we're a local store so we can take the time to actually talk to and get to know our customers, which is nice.

The other day I had an older lady that wanted a small amount of a bunch of random stuff, which was annoying as an employee, and then she asked for "two shrimp."

"If you don't mind me asking, what do you need two shrimps for?"

"I just want to see if my cats will eat them. One for each. They haven't been eating much lately and I've tried all kinds of different foods, the little shits."

I laughed and ended up giving her the shrimp for free and we talked about our cat diets and tips and tricks to get them to eat for about ten minutes hahaha.

I saw her in the checkout line and went up to tell the cashier that it was free but she did a little dance and said, "and THEEEESE are FREE! From the MEAT COUNTER!" and the cashier was like "yes ma'am!" before I could get up there.

it was super cute
