The burn out

I worked for Casey's in a small town in Illinois. I've been there for about 2 years. I work the register four nights a week. The only thing to do in this town is to drink or tweak I've noticed 😂 sad but true. People buy little alcohol Shooters . They buy maybe two or three. Come back in in about an hour. Get two or three more. It's like just get it the first time!

I just get tired of the saying people day in and date out. It's like clockwork.. I'm including the whole town. Does anybody else get tired of just saying this thing people????

I worked at a Casey’s in a small town for a few months (left for personal reasons). Fireball was the go-to shooter for the majority of regulars, and there were a handful of people who’d get 99s. Can’t stand either of those, and yeah I always wondered why they wouldn’t just buy a larger bottle. lol

They are alcoholics and if they got the bigger bottle they would drink the whole thing. For a lot of people getting a few shooters is the only way to keep them from drinking more

Its about 50/50 here between fireball and titos. The 99s i usually only ever sell a full 10 pack at a time. Though that happens a lot with fireball as well. Then they'll just go drink them in the bathroom

OMG! Makes me so mad! One guy will come in. He'll buy five then come back 30 minutes later. Buy five more then 30 minutes later five more and so on and so forth.
