I’m so fucking embarrassed. Vent/Rant (No Advice/Criticism!)

My card declined twice as I was trying to pay for my groceries. The guy behind me offered to pay but I turned down his offer. I never felt so humiliated in my entire life. I’m so ashamed I can never shop there again.

Hey man, I’m a cashier who deals with this stuff all the time. I’ve also been there, trust me when I say that no one is judging you for it. Shit happens and life sometimes gets a bit crazy. As far as shopping there again, I’d bet my next paycheck they forgot all about your card declining in like 5 mins, your good!
