What Do People Think?
Posted: March 8, 2008 at 12:14 pmI sent some pictures off to CVS to be printed. I normally print and ship via Shutterfly but I had some free prints from CVS so I took advantage. It’s the pick-up-in-store variety. So someone gets to ogle my family as they stuff the memories into an envelope.
Obviously, I printed a bagillion of the boys. But I also printed two pictures of the Munchkin. And I’m wondering what the printer person was thinking. Because I had about 40 pictures of these two boys. And then two of a girl. In a different house. With different people. Do they think she’s just a random girl? Do they think she’s a cousin? Or a friend’s daughter? Do they even care?
When I pick them up, I want to say, “Ah, yes, pictures of my three kids.” Chances are that the cashier won’t be the same person that stuffed the pictures into an envelope. But I want to brag, really. All of my children are absolutely beautiful.
This rambly post was brought to you by the Blizzard of 2008 which has made me unable to get to the store to pick up the said pictures… and has left me thinking about them non-stop! I threw in two pictures of the Munchkin specifically to update the picture on my fridge and the frame in our bedroom. And now I can’t update them because of the eight inches (and falling) of snow outside. I’m impatient! Want to update! Now!
The Discussion
see what everyone is saying
Straight from a CVS photo developer’s mouth (my pregnant DD):
“I don’t analyze people’s pictures. But, if I saw some like that, I would think the little girl was a friend.”
BTW, she thinks your kids are adorable!
Hopefully she wasn’t the cashier that was rude to me today because I emailed corporate. I used my free prints. There was an error from their computer system to their store because the cashier tried to charge me. Then she treated me like I was stupid and checked out wrong. Then she treated me like I was a liar and was just trying to get free photos. So, I reported her.
Tired of bad customer service.
BUT! Tell your daughter thanks for the compliments on the kids. I think they’re pretty cute, too! :)
If you came in with your kids, she would be very attentive to them. Little kids love her. They seem like they are drawn to her like a magnet.
Anyway, it wasn’t her! She is a supervisor at her store, and knows that the customer pays the way. She saves her complaining for home, lol. She would probably have given you the prints and figured out the problem later.
Good for you for reporting the clerk, though. There’s nothing my DD gets more upset about than a clerk who is rude or lazy!!
