Hung over. Not the best way to go to work.
Especially when they surprise you with register training.
Nevermind standing around the store, keeping to myself while I fold clothes.
At least I got to hear an amazing story. About zebras.
I was ringing up this older lady, and decided to make small talk. One of the shirts she was buying had zebras on it, and me, being the animal print fiend that I am, told her how much I liked the shirt.
She laughed and said she was buying it for her neice. Her neice that got bit by a zebra once.
WHAT?!
The lady started to cackle at the thought of seeing her poor neice opening the Christmas present only to find the one thing in the world that terrifies her most. Zebras.
How in the hell does someone get bitten by a zebra? Apparently as a child, the neice was at a zoo with her family, stuck out her hand towards a zebra, and the zebra bit it. The neice remembers trying to scream, but nothing came out, like in one of those bad dreams. The lady told me that everyone just couldn't stop laughing when it happened.
They even took pictures of it.
That's a little fucked up. Getting bitten by a zebra as a child clearly has had an effect on this poor girl, as she is still terrified by them. I'm sure they bring out the pictures every once in a while just to shake her up a bit. I can hear it now:
"Oh, remember that time when soandso got bitten by a zebra?! Hahahaa!"
The neice probably secretly wants to kill them all. And I'm not talking about zebras.

that zebra looks demonic.
It sounds like some urban legend created so children don't try to poet animals. But I suppose anything with chompers can.. chomp.
Not sure if you'll see this, but my son was bitten by a zebra just this week. We were driving through a safari park in Texas and it's the kind where the animals roam around loose, and you stay in your car, but feed the animals. Well, a zebra came up to my son's window and he was looking the other way. The zebra stuck it's head in and bit my son's arm! It really hurt, but didn't break the skin fortunately. Apparently the zebra just wanted his attention to get some food. And here I thought my son was the only person ever bitten by a zebra! (BTW, my son is an adult! At least he won't have nightmares.)
I was looking for a talking zebra card to send to my son (hope to make the zebra say it is sorry!) and came across your blog.
Nice fill someone in on and this enter helped me alot in my college assignement. Thanks you seeking your information.
When I was a child, I was bitten by a zebra. I actually kind of blacked it out for years but woke up one day, in a cold sweat, and remembered that I was bitten by a zebra as a child. The incident happened at the zoo, I was with my grandfather. Anyway... You can visit a couple of my sites if you like: http://bittenbyazebra.com and http://bittenbyazebraphotography.com
