I was working at Focus (my work experience placement) and while I was getting a trolley to put some stock on this strange man with white hair and white beard (without the the sideburns to join them and a bald patch on the top of his head), he also got a trolley. While I was bringing my trolley to the door I yeilded to the oldish looking man, he went through the door and said "Thank you, Adam". Now I didn't reply to him because I was speechless (I thought he said my name!). That was the strangest thing to hapen to me in my entire life, a complete stranger knew my name and used it. It is Friday the 13th you know, but I'm not much of a skeptic about these days until now.

One of my stupid guesses to who this man is was Santa Claus *sheilds eyes from LOLs from a whole bunch of regulars and n00bs*, It makes kind of sense, he had a white beard without the side burns joining it to his forehead, white hair above his ears with a circular bald path at the centre of his head, glasses (I think), he was 5"7, but it didn't look like he was over weight either.

And before you say this question the answer is "No I didn't wear a name tag".

What do you think?

Since I'm a horror fan I haven't really been haunted in any way by what happened yesterday.
I never saw that man inside the store since then and I was going through what happened in my mind trying to get a description of him going.
I know he was about 5"7' since he was only just taller than me and I'm 5"6.5'. I know he had white hair and a white beard with a bald patch on top of his head, my first guesses were either Santa or Satan (each name are an anagram of each other).
But Satan never says "Thank You" so it must be Santa since he has a list of whos good and whos not.

Did his bag have "swag" written on it? That would so rule

I thought I saw Santa, at work on Monday. There was this guy on the store roof that tripped the alarms, me and the manager went outside to look and there was this guy in a santa hat with a bulging black bag... turned out he had nicked stuff from Birthdays, climbed onto the Bakers roof next door, then onto ours, where he was stuck.

Then the police came and arrested him. Don't you just love Christmas time ?

I couldn't work where I wanted to, so I got stuck in TOP MAN... TOP MAN for Jimmy's sake!

They threatened to fire me on my second day, then I walked out after my 5th day, never to return (except to shop there)

No it isn't, the reason I am working there is because it was kind of a last resort idea before all of the good jobs are taken.
On the plus side to working there I get to go home for lunch since my house is a 5 minute walk from there.

I think you shoukd've knocked him over the head, kidnapped him, and stolen all the toys for yourself

And why, may I ask, are you doing your work experience at... Focus? Is that your career asperation, to work in a DIY shop?
