Welcome To Wal-mart

So I was paying at Wal-mart recently, and as I swiped my credit card the cashier asked to see my ID.  "Sure, thanks for asking...", I replied and handed it over.  As I packed my wallet away the rest of our exchange went, well...  Wal-mart.

Her:  How do you pronounce your last name?
Me:  It's Zarins.
Her:  I've never met anyone with that name before...
Me:  Yeah, my husband took me right to the end of the alphabet when he married me.
Her:  I bet you have to wait a loooong time when you go to court.
Me:  (Slight pause) Well, I try to avoid court at all costs...
Lady behind me in line:  Hmph! (sound of stifled laughter)
Me:  (continuing to load my cart without looking up for fear I'd meet the gaze of either woman)
Her:  Yeah, it's been a long time since I've been...
Me:  Well, let's try to keep it that way.  Have a great day!
