Never assume

Today, I was working and a woman wanted to pay with a credit card. It already had a picture on the card so you don't have to ask for i.d., and just glancing at it. I asked, "Oh, is this your husband's card?" She then replied, "No, that's just me with glasses and short hair." FML

Was her name bychance Susan Boyle? Haha, I'm sorry, that was low. She's a good sport. Just hideous.

And that's why you never ever, make personal comments during small talk to customers. No matter how little they may seem.

Don't worry about it. Most women who wear their hair short realize that they could be mistaken for men, especially if only seen from the neck up. In fact, I happen to have a short-haired female friend who makes jokes to that effect at her own expense quite frequently.

Oh dearie. Poor her. More like FHL. "Today, I went to a store, and used my credit card. The girl there asked me if it was my husbands card. It wasn't. It was acctually my card, just when I had glasses and short hair. Then came home to post it on FML, only to see that she posted it on FML. FmL." - Same thing, you still should have used a saver like, "Oh, you look much diffrent now! :)" Easy. ._.

Simple save. "Oh, you look alot diffrent now. :)" Easy. Should'a done that. But, chances are you won't see her again anyways. But this really isn't a FYL. FHL. She just got told she used to look like a man. ._.

Maybe she was being sarcastic..? I don't think so though. Next time, keep all thoughts to yourself, haha.

YDI for asking in the first place. Even if it was her husband's card, it isn't your business, and why would you give a f***? Curiousity killed the cat.

Don't feel bad. You can't help it if somebody looks like a man. Not your fault. F her life!
