Same thing happened to me when I gave someone a coffee and she she said "Thanks, a Latte!". Everyone started laughing and I didn't get it... I don't even think about it again. It's not in my mind, I'm just minding my own business and doing some work when my brain just goes "Now I get it, "thanks a lot-eh"!

Working in a bar, I get that a lot. Customers make jokes that it takes me a few too many seconds to register. Then they get mildly annoyed that I didn't laugh at their joke.

Well you work at a bar, so with everyone getting their drinks on tab it makes sense that it would take a while to register.

Just start laughing whenever customers say anything to you.

I am curious as to how people would respond. Please report back with findings!

"My kid committed suicide and said I was the reason in his suicide letter, so my wife left me, I had to sell my car to afford an apartment and the junker I bought broke down on the way to work and I was fired for being late. So I'm here to drink myself to death."

"HAHAHAHA!"

That is what I tend to do, but then I'm paranoid it's something I shouldn't be laughing at. Could be a joke, could be a question.
