28 Items Later - Day 2

By the usual standards this was a very good day. We managed to fight off the custombies, and no-one was lost. But it was a close call.

Something worrying happened near the end of the wave of custombies. One particular custombie decided to complain about the price of a bottle of milk to Jane, who was serving it. We had to send someone to check the price of the milk, during which time the custombies behind the one who was bitching about milk got very restless. They started shouting at people.

Thankfully we were able to lure these restless custombies to other registers before they decided to abandon the shopping pretext and just attack Jane. Later on in the staffroom a thought occurred...

"What if they ALL start doing that?"

That was a worrying problem. If they all started demanding pricechecks, we could be completely destroyed in less than a day. We had to all start facing the possibility that the custombies had found a weakness in what we thought was a good defense strategy.

The manager's taken the supervisors into his office to work out a solution. I sure hope they think of one quick.
