>>13920Great stuff... I didn't work food jobs as a teen but a few gigs in retail. I know there's another thread for "encounters" that aren't food-related, but this sticks out in my mind because of a similar countertop thing like
>>13920 describes.
My last job before college was at a t-shirt/gift shop. This was late-80s when people were way smaller and obviously no internet. It was a middle class/semi-wealthy area so you didn't see many fatties locally, but it was a touristy town and I worked weekends so there were always new people coming in, all kinds. Still, BBWs were rare and SSBBWs not even a 1/1,000 thing.
A mom and son came in while it was fairly dead. She was mid-30ish reminded me of Mama Cass (one of very few BBW references I had at the time lol): long dark hair, white ethnic features (Jewish, Italian, etc), very round face, and HUGE, apple-shaped with a giant belly that hung to her knees, which I'd never seen before. This is a long time ago obv. but my hazy memory says 450+, and not much over 5'. I don't think I'd ever seen a woman that fat in my life, even on TV.
She wore a hippie-ish poncho as a top that obscured her rolls fairly well but it didn't make it over her belly. She wore black "fat lady" stretch pants below, and the bottom of her gut had that camel toe-type cleft I've seen since but, again, was new to me then. That cleft was in my dreams for many years after.
I don't remember the son too well except that he was young and she needed a bathroom for him. She was exhausted, walked with a pronounced waddle and was really huffing and puffing. She leaned all over the counter as she asked me, and I could see how her stomach pressed into the front right through the glass. We didn't have a public bathroom but I was working alone, no boss, so I made an exception just to keep her around a little longer. When the kid was done she asked if she could use it and of course I said yes, but it was a tiny bathroom. I didn't think of this aspect til I saw her
May as well add a second sighting at the same place. A mother, dad, and youngish son came in, obviously foreign, not too dark-skinned but very exotic for the all-white area, maybe Arab, Greek, Turkish, Persian, etc. I don't remember the dad at all, but I do remember the kid was a fat little maniac, running all over the store and being a brat, hyped up on sugar or whatever. Again, fat kids were around of course but the exception, not the rule like now.
Anyway, more to the point, the mom was stunning, tallish with a really beautiful face with huge dark eyes, hair back tight in a bun. She had fairly big boobs and was stocky above the waist but the kicker was her ass. She had on a long black skirt, and this was the first time I'd seen a full-on shelf butt, and I'm talking like 2' deep and 3'+ wide. Seriously, like two people were hunched down hiding under there behind her. I'd seen big asses before but not that shape — think Viva Valerie or Asshley.
She walked very slowly and it bobbed up and down a bit as she moved. I was so fucking mesmerized there's no way she or her husband or other people didn't notice me staring, and I didn't care. They didn't stay long — the kid was really making a scene — and I swear I almost closed down the store so I could follow them. She was basically the embodiment of a fantasy I didn't even realize I'd had, and that's why I still remember a 5-minute incident, 35 years later.
