20 Two Bucks

Please click to see this one bigger.
This is the event that started the series of comics. It was in February. For various reasons, it has taken me this long to tackle it. A difficult drawing.
It was the end of sale day. Probably ten o'clock at night, we were getting ready to go home when someone said, "There's a customer outside." She had been the last customer out, big nasty woman - Jabba the Hut in a blonde wig- gave the cashier a hard time.... She was now banging on the glass yelling that we owed her 2.50$, we had overcharged her, cheated her.... We're all standing there, unsure what to do, trying not to make eye contact... The store closed half an hour ago, and she is MAD. Finally B--- gets a collection together. "We know her, she's crazy. It's best we just give her the money so she goes away." So the girls pooled their change together and C--- opened the door a crack and gave it to Jabba. She went and sat in her car until we all left.
I am absolutely terrified of this woman....and of course the next sales day she comes to my till...and that's another drawing I don't want to do.
