1:37pm in public

7 Jul

I went to Publix the other day and bought a salad for lunch. When I got back to work, I realized they overcharged me. I went back and forth on whether it was worth it to drive all the way back there for a mere 80 cents. In the end, my frugality won out. I mean I called SunTrust and sat on the phone for ten minutes for 37 cents. Compared to that, this is huge! Not only did I get back the 80 cents, she refunded me for the entire salad.

Totally worth it, but that’s not even the best part. She had to ask the other clerk what the code for a refund of this type was. He responded ’1337.’

At first it didn’t click. Why did that number sound familar? Then it hit me, and I thought, “DARN YOU, CHARLIE!!”

I may have invaded your precious website, but you’ve totally taken over my mind.
