I met this new cashier a little while ago and didn't have much of an impression of her simply because I figured I wouldn't see much of her. But they have been putting her outside with me in garden and we have hit it off pretty well. When I mentioned craving Wing Stop to her she was all game at my suggestion that we go after work to wing it up. I even offered to pick her up after she got off work and go to the one by her place (also the closest on to mind...not really close at all because Austin are Wing Stop haters and have like...only three stores in the whole city) and drive her home afterward.
I was worried in the few hours between getting off work and picking her up if we would actually have anything to talk about. While cashiering we seemed to do fine, but that was in spurts and usually prompted by something or someone else inspiring the vein of conversation. We did just fine. In fact she mentioned talking my ear off on the way home and I assured her that it wouldn't have been fun if we just ate wings in silence.
While I don't like routine, I use to look forward to going out every other week to Wing Stop with the full-time Bookkeeping from my old store. We were really close and it was a great way to catch up on what was going on in our lives. I am not going to say I will have that type of connection with this girl, but I could definitely tell she has an "other"-ness that may allow her to converse on that level I have shared with very few people. It would definitely be welcome.
