Today, I was chatting with a customer who comes regularly to my job. He sticks his hand out and I put my hand on his, thinking he's giving me a high five. He was just waiting for his receipt. FML

Who the hell "puts" their hand on a high five? You gotta slap that. The way you described it made it sound like a conjugal visit at a state penitentiary. No wonder it would have been awkward.

Talk about rude he should have just said something instead of holding his hand out.

If you caught the first part they were talking. I don't think he was gonna interrupt the conversation to ask for his receipt.

.....and that's why you'll never work a job better than retail. You clearly do not have the intelligence to do so.

From where in this FML do you derive that OP is unintelligent? Perhaps OP is just a friendly person, or loves their job? Please excuse yourself from this forum.

Either that was a relatively funny joke exaggerating the many overreactions to OP's situation or you are a douche.
