The most terrifying thing I learned about Japanese convenience stores is that they notice everything.
I used to buy the same drink every night.
Same time, Same store, Same cashier.
After a while she stopped scanning it immediately.
She would wait.
Watch me, Then say:
Cashier: Same?
Me: Yeah.
One night I didn’t buy it.
Just walked in for something else.
The cashier looked confused.
Cashier: Not thirsty?
Me: No.
Cashier: Are you sick?
Me: No.
Cashier: Did something happen?
Me: Why would something happen?
She didn’t answer.
Just slowly scanned my items.
The next day I came back, different drink again.
She didn’t greet me, just said:
Cashier: We worried yesterday.
Me: You worried?
Cashier: Yes.
Me: About me not buying a drink?
Cashier: Yes.
Me: That’s… not normal.
She paused.
Cashier: You are routine person.
Me: What does that mean?
Cashier: people like you disappear first.
I’ve never changed my order again without feeling like I’m committing a crime.

The comic made me think about whether different hand positions could potentially mean different things. Which leaves opportunities for very interesting misunderstandings... 🤔👀
