Whole Foods Hotties
Every time I go into Whole Foods the check out girls are always very friendly. But last night was exceptional. I was in Whole Foods with Mr. and she had just bought me a little thing of organic perfume, Mediterranean Fig, when the checker girl … a cute little suicide girl wannabe exclaimed, “Ooooh I just love their perfumes, I just bought one myself. The Blood Orange one.”
To which Mr. and I both smiled politely and were going to let that be it, but the look of expectancy in the girl’s eyes made me continue on with the banter, “Yea I love to smell like food.” I said with a stupid laugh, immediately realizing how lame that was.
But it wasn’t lame to her. Without missing a beat she responded, “Yea, because than people think you taste yuuuummmmyyy.” With a raised eyebrow and a huge smile she looked and me and than at Mr. and back to me. The old man standing behind me in line took an uncomfortable step backwards and Mr. got all flustered and almost broke the ATM thingy where you swipe your card.
I smiled, raised an eyebrow and bit my lip, not sure of what to say next so I just said, “Well I’m glad you said it and not me.”
She licked her lips and again her glance bounced back and forth between Mr. and I and said in a slightly lower voice this time, “Well, I knew where you were going with that.”
She realized Mr. was having issues with the card swipe thing-a-ma-jig and leaned over the counter suggestively to point out where she should sign. Mr. responded with a nervous laugh and, “You girls are speaking my language and you’ve got me all flustered.”
What you have to understand is that while the words that were spoken may seem harmless enough what I can not convey to you was the flirtiness in her gestures, the twinkle in her eye, the way she licked her lips and raised her eyebrow. Anyone within the vicinity felt the temperature go up at that cash register.
Then I remembered the last time I was at Whole Foods about a week prior and smiled as I recalled the little exchange I had with yet another checker. This last time the girl was so interested in how I brew a particular type of tea I drink that she suggested I just come over to her place and teach her in person. Again, with the extra wink and biting her lip.
My question is this: What is going on with the Whole Foods girls?? And can we see more of this type of behavior?? Pretty Please?? With sugar on top 😉
I think the whole foods chicks are open…and, since they are working at Whole Foods, they’re not exactly rolling in it, you know? All they have is their wit, youth, and sassiness…and they try to work it.
Good for them (and you). I tend to get the few checkers at whole foods who are old and bitter…some people have all the luck.
Please tell me that there’s a Whole Foods store coming to Ireland soon. So fruity smelly chicks would be more than welcome here!
I’m vegan and shop at WF every week. i’m african-american and live in the New Orleans, LA so theres always nice hippy/holistic/veggie black girls who are cute working at the WF in Metairie, LA. I’m Bi.
Trader Joe’s is kind of like this. Who knew that grocery shopping could make you feel so good?
