Why do cashiers say, "did you find everything OK?" It's such an exceptionally stupid question. It isn't even entirely clear what they are asking. Do they mean did you find everything you were looking for OK? Or do they mean was everything you found OK? Either way, the fact is they don't fucking CARE if you found anything at all, OK or not. They're a fucking cashier. Since it's such a dumb question, I like to use my superior intellect and make fun of them: "Yes, everything I found seemed to be OK." Best part is they never get the joke.
Just for fun, to prove my theory to myself that this is a worthless question asked without the slightest tinge of sincerity, sometimes I will say, "no." Take for example, today. I was at K-Mart and couldn't find black socks in the brand I like. They had white all over the place, and even in the boys section they had black and white in that brand but only white for the men (moron alert: shit-for-brains in purchasing!). So when I checked out, naturally the cashier posited her superficial question of pretending to give a shit. I explained the situation, and she goes, "huh that's weird," and just continued to check out my things.
OPEN QUESTION TO ALL CASHIERS: Why do you waste everyone's time asking a question that we all know - including you - that you aren't going to do shit about no matter what the answer is? WHY?!?!
I'm so fucking sick of that question, I feel like going postal next time someone asks it. Fucking pain in the ass mother fuckers.
