It's slow at the store now. Hasn't been a single customer in an hour, and it's too early to start cleaning. I suppose I could be stocking the cooler, but my co-worker called dibs on that. So I'm manning the front, and I'm bored, and nervous.

Earlier in my shift I had a pregnant woman walk up to my register with a case of beer. I always hate when that happens, because by law, as long as they're of age, we "have" to sell them the booze. Tonight, something came over me. After I asked for her ID, and saw that she was of age, I chewed her out. I asked why she wanted to destroy the baby inside of her, and what the hell had it done to her? I told her that just because she fucked up, or got fucked over, that was no reason to punish her unborn baby.

She started crying, but left the store without the beer.

I don't know. On one hand I feel bad for yelling at her, but on the other hand I don't.

If I get fired from this job for that reason, I won't be surprised at all.
