Today, I was working at a grocery store and a man came to my register to ask for the price of a mop. I took the mop from him to scan it without realizing the pole was between his legs. I hit him in the crotch with the pole. FML

Um... why would he put a mop there?
If you're a girl, I would suspect a hidden message.
I don't generally see people with things between their legs when they want a price check.

What the hell. Why would he walk up to your register, ask for a price check, and then shove the mop's handle between his legs. FHL for being that stupid. And weird.

#7 maybe he...um... er....

how is this an "FML" i mean all the person was doing is scanning the bar code. not like he (or she) got hit in the groin, its the dumbass's who had the mop there; im calling this a fail
I agree with #16 on that one. They really should have a "fail" button we can click.
Besides, I'm guessing the guy assumed you'd use a handheld scanner to check instead of whipping the thing on the scanner.
I've did that once when I was a cashier at a house wears store. Except, I did it with a shower rod. I was mortified, and the customer in pain. I apologized over and over, and the customer was actually pretty cool about it. He said he'd worked in retail before and should have known better than to let me grab the rod.
Yeah, what was his mop doing between his legs? Sounds like you did the right thing.

maybe he had it between his legs so he could use his hands to look in his wallet to see if he had money or something.
Im pretty sure it wasnt perverted or weird.
That sucks that you hit him *there* though. lol, lets hope you dont get in trouble.
I'd really like to know HOW the mop poll ended up in between the guy's legs.

not your fault... why would he have it between his legs? Was he pretending to be a witch or something?
One time when I worked at a store, I turned around quickly and my hand kind of swung. I ended up accidently cupping the ahem package of the man behind me. I was mortified and said "OMG sorry." He smiled and said, "Well hi there."

That's more like fuck his life.
However, why did he have the mop between his legs anyway? That was his fault.
KiKi, if he asked you to scan his mop while it was between his legs, he probably deserved it.

Sounds more like a FML on his end.
Today I was at the store and I wanted to know how much a mop cost. I took it to the cashier, and the guy went to scan it. The mop was between my legs and I got hit in the crotch. FML
Freaking stupid customers. It's not that cashier's fault when stuff like that happens. It doesn't take much to make a mistake like that--think about it. If you're stupid enough to walk right up to a register with a mop between your legs, it's your fault. It takes quite an odd angle to pick up a long object over a counter... I'd like to meet the cashier who's never done that, without thinking about it. It's the same physics as putting a pencil on a desk so that one end sticks out and hitting it so it flies; it's just that, in this case, it's tilted and the customer was STUPID to stand in EXACTLY the WRONG place.
I'm a cashier, by the way. Stupid customers are the bane of my existence.
The mop cost more than what it was worth, if you know what I mean.
