Being moderately hungover and fatigued at work on Saturday, the following interaction with a rather normal looking, early 40's-ish woman was the clear highlight of the morning.
(Woman approaches me at a checkout desk)
Woman: Where would I find your erotic section?
Me: Oh, we have two separate areas. I'll show you. (I walk her to the erotic romance novels, which are generally geared towards women.)
Woman: Oh, thanks. (looks around) Hmmm. I don't think that you have the series that I am looking for. You have some of the author's regular romance novels, but there is a specific erotic fantasy series that I'm looking for. I bought the first in the series here and I was hoping to flip through some of the others to see if they are as good as the first one.
Me: Well, if we've had the first book in the store before, it's very likely that we could order the others in for you.
Woman: No thanks, don't go to the trouble. I don't know if I want to order them without having a chance to look at them first, but it's good to know that I could. Now, you said you had another section. I remember seeing one with a lot more S & M sort of stuff.
Me: Yeah, you just walk up past that desk and take a left.
Woman: Thanks for all your help! (Walks towards the other erotic section.)

The highlight of the afternoon was working in the stockroom and not having to talk to anyone.
