today a friend and i quickly went to the back and hit a couple bowls in the freezer, and then resumed our usual tasks.
i work produce at a local grocery store, and usually i wear gloves just to keep my hands clean from all the products i come in touch with. well it was time for me to leave, and i just finished stacking limes. so i go in the back, take my apron off, and then go up front to clock off. our time clock machines requre you to type in your passcode, and then it will scan your finger so no one can clock in/out for you. so i type in my passcode, and place my finger on the scanner.
it gave me an error, something like "finger print not found"; i tried again, and again, and again, and it didn't work. at this point i'm pretty furious, because i want to leave but it won't let me clock off. so i call over a manager and he tells me to try it again and this time he's watching. so i do it again and show him how it didn't work. he stares right at me and he says, "you still have your gloves on......", and i kinda want to let out a huge laugh, but at the same time i know i just made a really stupid and obvious mistake. so to make it less awkward i said, "oh, i thought it can see through it or something..", haha, he looks right at me and mutters a few words and walks off.
