Today, while at a funeral for a distant family member, I was giving my condolences to the family. When one of them asked how I was doing, I replied with, "I'm still alive!", which is one of my standard responses due to being a cashier and being asked that question a hundred times a day. FML

hey everyone. thanks for being understanding for the most part. this was just one of the "I wasnt thinking" kind of things. dont worry though: I got several slaps on the back of then head from cousins who were in earshot.

Poor choice of words under the circumstances, although you meant no harm

I know how that works. My default out-tro is have a nice day/night. It's a habit that really sneaks up on you.

I too am a cashier and have the same reply. I've also taken it out of work a few times though never in such an embarrassing way. At least you didn't mean it in any bad kinda way.

Lol! At least your customers ask how you're doing. Mine just say "Fine. Lemme get" whatever they want. It's like there's a robot in front of them instead of a person.
