General Discussion

This was in the late 80s.

Three things that stick out in my mind about that job:

—Mrs Warner was in her late 70s/early 80s. She would come in every day to buy our largest bottle of NyQuil. I guess she was addicted to it.
—Swisher Sweets, a cheap brand of cigarillos, were very popular with old black men.
—We provided film developing service. A third party would pick up the day’s drop-offs and deliver developed pics that customers had dropped off in the days before. I would have to document in a ledger that we had received each envelope of developed photos. I was shocked at the number of people taking naughty photos. I wouldn’t look at everyone’s, but over time, I learned which customers had proclivities!
