creepy cashier
05:31:2002

he stacks the coins vertically, largest diameter on the bottom. he pinches the stack at it's base using his thumb, pointer, index and ring fingers. pinky is daintily curled and tucked into his palm. the stack of change is placed in the center of my palm. as his fingers release the coins, the fingertips are touching my palm and they trace lines outward from the coins.

when the contact between his fingertips and my palm is broken, my hand rises slightly; released from the downward force he exerts.

this creeps me out in the worst way. not in a homophobic way, but in a "i have dead people in my tool shed" type of way.

this is not an isolated incident but rather a daily occurrence. i have asked other patrons about it, some are ashamed and don't like to discuss it because it makes them feel dirty.

next time i will have the exact amount, requiring no change.
