upside

i was paying at the cashier when a good-looking guy walked over.

guy:  'is there a number?'

cashier:  'none but there's a queue...  just sit at the end...'

and then the cashier and his workmates started gushing about the guy...

me:  'attend to the others slowly so you could see him longer...'

a workmate chuckled:  'tell them the system is slow...  it really is anyway...'

true...  processing took longer than usual and the staff were blaming it on the system...  well, every cloud has a silver lining...  ; )
